So without more details, "select" sites could be 5% of locations, or it could be 75% of locations.

Tesla plans to open at least 3,500 new and existing 250 kilowatt chargers to drivers of all kinds of EVs by the end of next year, the White House said.

Tesla already has a U.S. network of more than 17,700 fast chargers at over 1,650 locations, but in the U.S. they aren’t available to other types of vehicles.

The WSJ article I added in the post says about 20% of locations by end of 2024

Probably new sites they are adding the year will get the upgrade. So it won't be very helpful for a long time.

From the article:

"Tesla has agreed to open the Supercharger network in the US by the end of 2024."

So don't hold your breath. We know how timing works at Tesla.

A lot of the more rural and less used Superchargers could be opened to CCS would be a real benefit. I very much doubt Tesla is going to improve the CCS charging experience in LA.

Taking the Tesla twitter post literally Tesla are beginning a massive buildout.

They want some of that 7.5 Billion so they will do the bare minimum

Just like the RAN network then....

 

[R1Sky Business]

Good news nevertheless

 

[R1Sky Business]

Unless you're a Tesla driver

 

[R1Sky Business]

How long until Rivian makes a statement about opening RAN to all vehicles as well for a piece of the pie $????
