Seems weird to be posting a job listing for charging station locations.

Here are some locations I know of for charger locations that are pending jobs.

Pardon my ignorance, but what does "EP" stand for?

Hey Burner, is this list on the forum? I’d be interested to see if any are planned for Oregon.

This is a new list most likely.
Thanks. I saw the Rivian Forums watermark and assumed there was a file somewhere showing all current EP openings.

Maybe I worded the post incorrectly. These aren't job openings but rather job locations for charging stations from the Utility side where a planning engineer for the utility would determine if they are suitable to connect or if the grid needs work to accommodate the load.

The watermark was added I think when I uploaded. Not sure why...

Looks like Yosemite will be covered, now we need Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Without a charger somewhere in the park, the trip to Cedar Grove will be rough.

That's a ridiculous amount of proprietary charging density in the North Bay, if this is accurate. Corte Madera, Stinson Beach, Muir Beach, Sausalito are all easily covered by existing charging networks, or even a single Rivian location.

My understanding of the Rivian Adventure Network was that it would be providing last mile capacity to existing networks, enabling travel deep into National Forest and BLM areas especially when pulling a trailer. These don't seem to be in line with that mission.

That said, I have always welcomed more charging locations, even when they don't make immediate sense to me. If this is indeed accurate, it's possible it will allow Rivian to more easily access and monitor how their chargers are used and serviced without dispatching to remote locations. Also, infrastructure is readily available in the locations listed. Tesla has chargers in most of these areas already.

Looks like that area would be Southern California Edison territory, right? If so, you'd need a source at SCE. This list is is probably from PG&E.
