Tesla Expands Semi Charging Network by Partnering with Forum Mobility
WHY IT MATTERS
The partnership gives Semi drivers more reliable charging options, reduces downtime, and signals Tesla’s strategy to grow its network through third‑party infrastructure.
What happened
Tesla will operate public Megacharger sites at three of four new California depots that Forum Mobility is about to break ground on. Forum, one of the largest heavy‑duty charging operators in the United States, is adding 30 MW of heavy‑duty charging capacity and holds reservations for more than 330 Tesla Semis.
By running the Megachargers, Tesla extends its Semi charging network beyond stations it owns, marking the clearest sign yet that the company is building infrastructure through partners. The move gives Semi operators additional, reliable charging points and demonstrates a shift toward a more collaborative approach to expanding electric truck infrastructure in the U.
S. market.
