Tesla will open up its Supercharger patents

Wow, that’s fascinating. Reminds me of when Mercedes allowed the patent for the seat built to be used by anyone because it was of benefit to all people. Getting more superchargers built helps Tesla, if other people do it so Tesla cars can use theirs, obviously. But since Tesla is getting the supercharger network rolled out faster than some others, it’s a big deal.

Also a big deal because I imagine Tesla will be giving away info on how the supercharger works, which might give competitors detail...
