EV charging development across the WestYuba City In development

Our charging approach

Fast charging.
A better place to pause.

RoadRunner EV is planning charging around the whole stop: the equipment, the location, the people and the work required to keep it useful.

Development priorities

Power. Place.
People.

These are planning priorities for future stations. Final features, equipment and service commitments are established for each project.

Power that fits the site

Evaluate high-power DC equipment alongside utility capacity, power sharing, expected vehicle needs and expansion options.

A straightforward arrival

Consider entry and exit, clear signage, circulation, accessible routes and the practical space needed for a charging stop.

A useful place to pause

Consider lighting, shade, seating and nearby food or restrooms where feasible. Amenities and access arrangements are specific to each location.

Service planned from the start

Define monitoring, driver support, preventative maintenance and repair responsibilities as part of the equipment and operating agreement.

Planning reference: U.S. Department of Energy · EV readiness and site selection.

Technology under evaluation

High capability.
Configured for the location.

Tesla’s current commercial Supercharger offering is one option informing our equipment research. Tesla advertises V4 posts with up to 500 kW capability, with power shared across a site configuration.

The final RoadRunner configuration depends on the selected equipment, utility service, vehicle compatibility and executed agreements.

Tesla describes its business offer as a package of hardware, software and service. Our provider evaluation also covers payment access, remote monitoring, driver support and maintenance responsibilities.

From equipment to everyday operation

Plan the service
behind the charging stop.

  1. Select & configure

    Match hardware, connectors and electrical design to the site and expected vehicles.

  2. Commission

    Coordinate installation, testing and readiness before opening.

  3. Monitor & maintain

    Establish monitoring, preventative service and a process for resolving faults.

  4. Support drivers

    Provide a clear route for assistance and communicate confirmed site information.

Evaluate the right additions

Room to consider
shade, storage and more.

Solar canopies and battery storage can be evaluated alongside the site’s space, electrical needs, permits and economics. Their inclusion is a project decision, not an assumption.

Solar & shade

Explore the physical fit, energy production and customer experience together.

Battery storage

Evaluate the operating use case, safety requirements, degradation and cost.

These are possible options. No solar or battery installation has been announced for Yuba City.

Good to know

Technology, without the guesswork.

A little clarity before the first conversation.

Which chargers will RoadRunner EV use?

We are evaluating high-power DC equipment, including the Tesla Supercharger for Business offering discussed in our planning materials. Final equipment selection, purchase terms and site power have not been announced.

Will NACS and CCS vehicles be supported?

Vehicle compatibility is part of equipment selection. We are evaluating support for NACS/SAE J3400 and CCS vehicles, including any required adapter arrangements. Confirmed connector details will be published before a station opens.

Will every driver receive the charger’s maximum power?

No. Delivered charging power depends on the vehicle, battery condition and charge level, equipment configuration and power available at the site. A manufacturer’s maximum rating is not a guaranteed charging speed.

What uptime or reliability target is promised?

No RoadRunner operating uptime result or contractual service level has been announced. Our planning priorities include remote monitoring, a clear support path, preventative maintenance and defined repair responsibilities.

Will stations include solar, batteries or on-site amenities?

Those features are evaluated for individual properties based on space, electrical needs, permits and economics. Confirmed amenities and energy systems will be described for each project.

Will these plans be the same at every location?

No. Purpose-built stations, existing gas stations and other properties have different access, utility and operating requirements. The site and commercial agreement determine the final approach.
