Augusta, GA. Address is the same as permit




Grayling is open too

We weren't even sure if that one was under construction already. That would be good to see more east coast ones getting really really close to opening, even if it's not fully up yet.

Assuming I can actually get the vehicle in time, this is gonna make a trip to Hilton Head MUCH easier.

Sweet! So that's officially 2 open in the east with Blowing Rock actually giving someone a charge and surely being official in a matter of days. Of the eastern "coming soon" locations, we're only missing signs of construction at 3 (2 in MI and the Cherokee, NC one). Don't have any addresses for those 3, so they're going to be fun surprises when they come online.

Augusta, GA RAN station just populated in my App as available to charge. Can anyone confirm??

The RAN charging station at Augusta, GA is online! Photo of the 6 stalls:

Grayling MI RAN is now online. 6 stalls.

Status of Front Royal VA from 2 weeks ago

I really wish this site was open. It would be better than using an EA site that's so far off 66 on my way into WV.

haha. funny but pretty sad. They have probably the best wind environment in the country and should be putting up thousands of wind turbines. Hopefully they start doing that. Can export a lot of power to neighboring states.

This is so true and WV is the perfect playground for this truck. It would be cool to get a RAN station at the top of Scherr Mountain right under the windmills and outside Canaan Valley. Really though, I’d love some in Davis or at one of the state parks.

Still covered as of yesterday.

Looks like equipment is showing up for the installation at mesa mall in Grand Junction, Colorado. It will be less of a detour off the interstate than the EA chargers at Sam's club!

Any news on status / timing of Grand Junction’s RAN?

@JeremyP do you know what the current status is for the RAN at Mesa Mall? Curious if there has been any progress since November.

Unfortunately not much. I stopped by this morning; there is a 1000kva transformer installed now but no pedestals or equipment in the fenced in area yet.

The link below is to a Google Map that I have created with 3 layers. It is pretty raw right now, so I'll put all the information about it first. The link should stay good even as I try to polish things up over time.

I also can't promise that it will always be up to date. If Rivian changes locations on their map, well... those aren't going to be updated on mine because I won't necessarily ever learn that they've updated it, and too many updates will simply take time that I might not have for this project. If someone lets me know, I might be able to do one-off updates. If someone lets me know of major changes to the RAN map, I can probably do some bigger updates.

The 3 layers:
1) The RAN addresses that are "known" or guessed based on information in other threads in this forum -- right now it's the Salida, CO location and the locations shared for CA that were based on utility jobs involving PG&E.

2) Crudely-place points for RAN locations based on the Rivian.com map. They're crudely placed because all we can extract from the Rivian map is a fairly high-level of zoom with large icons. The icons appear to mostly be placed in the city or general area anyway. These are not exact locations and should only be treated as being within a 10-15 mile radius. They also don't reflect actual charging stations, just the areas that Rivian is loosely planning to put locations. I hope to name these points, but that's very time-consuming. A possible solution for that might be coming, and if it does will be reflected in an updated version of this layer. These points are based on the RAN map on 6/26/2021.

3) Electrify America locations I pulled from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's data on alternative fuel stations, including EV chargers. This data is good as of 6/26/2021.

If there are any features that people think are critical to this being usable, let me know and I can try to add them. Please keep in mind that some of this is time consuming and I do have a full-time job and other responsibilities and hobbies, so I make NO promises about adding anything or when it might happen.

If anybody is interested, I can share a geo-referenced TIFF file of the RAN map that I screen-capped from their website in pieces, stitched together, and then geo-referenced in QGIS. It can be opened in Google Earth if anybody wants to play with that at all. I can also share a KML file that has all of these unlabeled RAN points.

Finally, if automating the point names isn't doable, I will probably have to defer to others who are interested in crowdsourcing some of this. In that situation, I can share the map through Google Drive to let others edit. More on that if needed.

UPDATE (7/9/21):
1) I added a 4th layer: Rivian service and/or sales locations. I will start adding to it this weekend based on location information in this forum. (minor update 7/10: I added the ones that looked like very solid addresses from the thread on service centers and showrooms)
2) I am starting to add fields for additional data for each point, including status (permit, construction, online, ??). I will also try to have Google use different icons and/or colors for each status. It should work perfectly, but there are so few points with different statuses right now that I'm not 100% sure it will scale the way I expect. (minor update 7/10: I have also added a field for the source for the info, usually a URL to a RivianForums post or to a news article.)
3) Automating the point names for my "crude placement" layer was going to end up being trickier than the time it would actually save. I was able to churn out about 100 in an hour while watching tv (so not moving as quickly as I could with 100% attention). I will keep churning on that over time. Eventually I will get them all named, but honestly I don't think the names really matter all that much, so I'm not in a big rush.
4) I am going to look at some other options for this whole setup beyond just the basic Google My Maps. Those may allow a little more flexibility on crowdsourcing updated locations or status. "Free" is currently the most important criterion though, so I think it's going to stay where it is for now. The good news is that the data should be easily exportable from My Maps, so work done now won't go to waste if I change later.

UPDATE (12/10/22):
1) The layer for "target areas" now reflects 3 statuses: Open, Soon, and Other/Unknown. That will give an overall impression of progress and what's expected to come in the short and long term.
2) The layer with known addresses, including Open, Construction, and Permit will stay the same.

UPDATE (through 1/22/23):
TeamEV broke out the layers a little differently, which is an improvement for sure. There's still the original "target areas" layer. There's a new target areas layer that reflects the change on Rivian's site to show a more limited list of sites that are online or "Coming Soon". That way we can keep a bit of a "historic" record of the complete original plan while letting us focus on just the current version of the official map.

Great work!

For those who have visited operational RAN stations, is it clear that they are for Rivian vehicles only? Has anyone seen a confused non-Rivian pull up and attempt to charge yet?

Every RAN station I have been to has been empty except for a Bolt I seen pull up to use the L2 that are available in Bishop CA.

I have seen a couple of comments on Plug Share from Tesla owners bitching that the network wasn't open.... lol

That’s hilarious.

That’s hilarious.

Found one. From Crescent OR location. ID4 also subsequently confused as well but the Tesla owner comment is priceless
