RAN Rivian Charging Stations Locations Map via Google Maps

This is new though…4 Freewire units north of Waco. These actually have 150 kw battery packs in them and a normal grid hookup but will do 100-125kw speeds. But again….redundancy too close to EA but I guess that’s what’s needed now.

Thanks for this, Dave. I had not seen the Road ranger location previously. Will need to give it a shot. I'm not a fan of stopping at that EA station located in the Walmart parking lot. Most of the chargers are having issues usually and the area can be seedy.

I'd disagree it's tone deaf. Is it annoying if you don't have access? Yes. I wish there were RAN chargers along routes in WA I use (I've gone to the coast by Aberdeen like.... twice in 12 years). That being said, they're celebrating that it's possible where they have built chargers out in locations where they have sales.



CA likely has the highest deliveries overall (obviously). The Bellevue service center has been servicing something like 20% of all Rivian sales on it's own from a single service center in WA, and the Emerald City Rivian Club flip flops with the most members with the Bay Area club. There's your top two States and I'd guess more than 50% of their deliveries. Colorado is probably number three, and has a large density. Oregon has a decent number of deliveries as well. Make your best guess with TX, CO, and FL. Even if Texas has the fourth most deliveries that's still likely a relatively low density. Building out from CA, which is Rivian's headquarters, makes sense even though it has annoyed me. It gives them a cohesive network to build out from, and a lot of their stations are clearly targeted to accessing outdoor adventures, not interstate travel. The chargers on I-5 in Oregon were the last to go in.

Rather than getting angry with Rivian over it, ask why EA hasn't built out that specific route? or EVGO? Why hasn't anyone bought a station with Chargepoint and put one in?

That's ignoring the political/moral stances that Texas has, which opposes Rivian's stated goals and stances. I doubt that really makes Rivian want to focus much of investment in Texas.

States like Texass could have issues getting many RANs due to pricing per minute too

Got a solid 150kW on the Freewire charges in Waco today for 10 minutes. Put ~24kwh on the truck which was more than enough to get home to Grapevine. Only cost $3.20.

Have you been by the Saginaw location to see if there has been any progress there lately?

Someone else posted on plugshare that the stations have been dropped off there now. s00n.

A few updates today!!! Clare, MI; Roanoke, VA; and Fields of Dan, VA are all open and on the Rivian.com map!

Electricians are working on the Traverse City, MI site today. A couple of big reels of cable are on the ground next to a couple of vans. I still did not see any dispensers around as I drove by though.

Driving past the RAN Traverse City site this afternoon I noticed dispensers there on pallets. Stopped by and chatted with the electricians. They expect them to be installed in the next couple of days, then we wait for final inspections - hopefully they will be operational by Memorial Day weekend.

I asked them if they are involved with the Saginaw installation, and if so when that will be online. He said there is a problem that will require the removal of a pad and some rewiring to be done, so that is probably a couple of weeks out yet.

Next time I see one of the Rivian folks at the stations I am going to ask about Mackinaw if someone else hasn't first. Would make it possible to get up to Drummond Island on RAN.

Today (5/17) there were two Rivian employees with a mobile service truck working on the pedestals in Grand Junction and they mentioned it should be ready to go in about a week. I also asked about a Moab site, and apparently the plans were drawn up but the grid upgrades that the power company was requiring was in the millions. Possibly a site closer to the interstate could work. Rivian should really install large stationary batteries for these types of cost prohibitive locations, and it would have the added benefit of greatly reduced electrical demand charges.

Grand Junction RAN as of Saturday 5/6. Getting Close!

How does much charging cost at these? Vary by state, or location?

RAN is still free everywhere. Rivian said by the end of April they would start charging.

Broomfield, CO (Flatirons Mall) should officially be online either today or very soon!

waiting for Texas love (from anyone at this point)
