How do you host a Tesla Supercharger on your property in Texas?

You provide the property and a block of dedicated parking, you own the charging equipment, and you set the price drivers pay. Tesla lists the site in every Tesla’s navigation and runs the network for a services fee of $0.10 per kWh delivered, and a Tesla-certified installer designs, permits, builds and activates the site.

Bullet EV Charging Solutions is a Tesla-certified Supercharger installer headquartered in Austin. In Texas we have 38 Tesla Supercharger sites built or under construction, 28 of them finished and handed over, with 416 Supercharger posts between them. This guide covers what owners usually ask on a first call.

Who does what on a Texas Supercharger site

Tesla splits a host site into ten areas and owns seven of them. The rest belong to you, and the installation is the piece the installer takes off your plate.

You, the site host

  • Provide the location and the dedicated stalls.
  • Own the charging equipment.
  • Set the price drivers pay per kWh, and collect the charging revenue.
  • Keep the site lit, tidy and open around the clock.

Tesla

  • Lists the site in Tesla Trip Planner and in-car navigation.
  • Runs the software, payments, driver support, connectivity and maintenance, all inside the $0.10 per kWh services fee. There is no separate software subscription or maintenance contract.
  • Supplies the hardware: V4 posts with up to 500 kW per post on a V4 cabinet, and NACS connectors.

The installer (Bullet EV)

  • Site evaluation and a custom ROI report.
  • Electrical and civil design, the utility application and permits with the local authority.
  • Construction, Tesla commissioning and activation.
  • Research and applications for any incentives the site qualifies for.

The full breakdown, with Tesla’s package listed item by item, is on our Supercharger hosting page.

The steps, from first call to first charge

  1. Qualify (days). A site qualifier and a desktop review of traffic, parking and power, with a first ROI estimate.
  2. Model and propose (1 to 2 weeks). A custom ROI report, a recommended charger count, pricing scenarios and a fixed-scope proposal.
  3. Design and permit (weeks). Electrical and civil design, the utility application, and permit submittals.
  4. Utility work and construction (months). Utility service work, trenching, conduit, switchgear, cabinets and posts. The utility is usually the long pole, and we manage it.
  5. Commission and activate (days). Testing, inspections, Tesla commissioning, and the site goes live in Tesla navigation.

What a good site looks like

  • Visibility and access: on or near a major corridor, with simple in-and-out for drivers following navigation.
  • Eight or more dedicated stalls: a contiguous block you can commit to charging, with room to maneuver. Tesla sites are built in groups of at least four posts.
  • Power: existing utility capacity, or a realistic path to a new service. We run the application.
  • Open 24/7: no gates, barriers, time limits or seasonal closures.
  • Amenities within a minute: restrooms, food or drink, seating and trash cans, open through charging hours.
  • Lighting and upkeep: every stall and pathway well lit and kept in good repair.

In Texas the sites we have built include fuel stations and travel centers, barbecue stops on highway routes, and retail parking lots in the cities, all listed below.

What it costs, and incentives

Turnkey installation typically ranges from roughly $35k to $65k per charger before equipment, depending on the site, distance to power, trenching and utility requirements. Revenue is energy delivered times your price per kWh, net of electricity and Tesla’s fee. The ROI calculator combines equipment, installation and incentives into a project total and a payback estimate for your stall count.

Incentives depend on the location, utility and installation date. The federal Section 30C credit is unavailable for property placed in service after June 30, 2026, so check current state, local and utility programs with the program administrator and your tax advisor. We research them as part of the proposal.

Each of these has its own project page with the stall count and photos.

Common follow-up questions

How many stalls do I need?

Tesla sites are typically built in groups of at least 4 posts. Most commercial sites we scope land between 8 and 16 stalls, and the ROI model on this site lets you compare scenarios.

Who owns and maintains the equipment?

You own the site equipment. Tesla covers software, network operations, service and payment processing through its per-kWh services fee, so there is no separate operations vendor to manage.

How long does a project take?

Site qualification and an ROI report take days. From signed agreement to an active site, most projects take several months, with utility service upgrades and permitting being the long poles. We manage both.

Can non-Tesla vehicles use the chargers?

Tesla Superchargers use the North American Charging Standard (NACS), which most major automakers have adopted. Many non-Tesla EVs can already charge on the Supercharger network with an adapter or a native NACS port, and that share is growing every model year.

What does the site assessment cost?

Nothing. The qualifier, the initial ROI report and the first call are free and carry no obligation.
