According to reports, TeraWatt Infrastructure has announced the construction of the first network of heavy-duty and medium-duty truck electric car charging stations on the Interstate 10 freeway, which runs from Long Beach, California, to El Paso, Texas. In New Mexico, California, and Arizona, the facilities will be less than a mile from the closest freeway exits and around 150 miles apart. Even though there aren't many electric long-haul trucks on the road yet, it's likely that they'll arrive sooner, so building a charging infrastructure now is a wise decision.

TeraWatt estimates that the first websites will go live in 2023.
