On the premises of the German Tesla factory in Grünheide now stands the largest charging park in the world – with a total of 546 publicly accessible charging points. Tesla primarily relies on free-to-use AC charging points, which are available not only for employees and visitors but theoretically also for travelers passing through.
Charging infrastructure in detail
On the factory's south parking lot, there are 527 charging points, 226 of which are covered. The covering is equipped with photovoltaic modules that contribute to the energy supply of the entire charging park. Tesla states that the peak connection power is about one megawatt.
The AC charging points are Tesla Wall Connectors with a charging capacity of 11 kW. With 527 charging points alone, this would theoretically result in a total capacity of approximately 5.8 MW – an impressive figure. However, through sophisticated load management, the power is limited to a total of one megawatt, ensuring a stable and free charging process.
For longer trips, in addition to the free AC points, 19 V4 Superchargers with up to 250 kW are available, designed especially for fast recharging. These Superchargers are used for a fee – currently, the charges are 0.40 €/kWh for Tesla vehicles and 0.53 €/kWh for other brands without a subscription.
Worldwide expansion statistics
Tesla presented impressive numbers in the first quarter of 2025: approximately 2,200 Supercharger charging points were put into operation worldwide – these figures are to be officially announced on April 22. By the end of 2024, Tesla already had 6,975 Supercharger locations worldwide with a total of 65,495 charging points, representing a growth of 17 to 19 percent compared to the previous year.
The charging park in Grünheide underscores Tesla's commitment to a comprehensive charging infrastructure – and is a strong signal towards energy autonomy and sustainability.
