Tesla Semi Georgia Megachargers: Atlanta-Savannah Route and Access Limits

Georgia now has 14 Tesla Semi Megacharger stalls across Conley and Ellabell. Here are the two locations, published power and the access details that remain unconfirmed.

Direct answer: Two Tesla Semi Megacharger sites are now operating in Georgia: eight stalls at 1820 Rock Cut Road in Conley near Atlanta and six stalls at Pilot #1390, 130 Interstate Exchange Way in Ellabell near Savannah. Published material describes charging power of up to 1.2 MW per stall, giving the I-16 freight lane 14 high-power stalls across its two ends. The sources do not publish unrestricted-access rules, reservations, prices, guaranteed uptime or eligibility for every truck, so fleets should verify those details before routing around either site.

The openings matter because they place megawatt-class charging near both ends of a major Georgia freight lane. They do not yet prove that the Southeast has a complete heavy-truck charging network or that a truck can arrive without checking access and operating conditions.

Where are the Tesla Semi Megachargers between Atlanta and Savannah?

  • Conley, near Atlanta: Tesla's location listing, as linked in current reporting, identifies 1820 Rock Cut Road in Conley, Georgia, with eight Megachargers and charging power up to 1.2 MW.
  • Ellabell, near Savannah: Pilot says six heavy-duty charging stalls are open at Pilot #1390, 130 Interstate Exchange Way in Ellabell, Georgia.

Electrek describes the two sites as roughly 220 road miles apart along the Atlanta-Savannah freight route. Conley sits south of Atlanta, while Ellabell is west of Savannah near I-16. That geography explains the corridor label; it does not guarantee that every route, load, weather condition or truck configuration can complete a trip with the same charging plan.

How many stalls and how much power do they offer?

The two openings provide 14 stalls in total: eight in Conley and six in Ellabell. Pilot says its network locations will use Tesla V4 cabinet technology and that each stall can deliver up to 1.2 megawatts.

Up to is the important boundary. The published rating is not a promise that every session will hold 1.2 MW. Actual charging can vary with the truck, battery state and temperature, site demand, equipment condition and operating controls. The retained sources do not provide a guaranteed arrival-to-departure time for either Georgia site.

Why is this called an Atlanta-Savannah Megacharger corridor?

Current reporting groups the two Georgia sites because they sit near opposite ends of the freight route between metro Atlanta and the Savannah area. A high-power site at each end can make planning more practical than a single isolated charger.

That still is not a continuous network. Two endpoints do not establish mid-route redundancy, backup capacity during an outage, queue availability or coverage beyond this lane. A fleet should treat the pair as two current locations, not as proof of nationwide or even statewide Megacharger completeness.

Can every Tesla Semi driver use these sites?

The public materials reviewed for this guide do not answer that broadly. Pilot says the Ellabell stalls are open and designed to support heavy-duty electric trucks, while reporting describes both Georgia locations as part of Tesla's emerging customer-facing network. Neither source publishes a complete access policy covering every truck, account or fleet.

Before dispatch, a fleet should verify:

  1. Vehicle eligibility: whether the exact truck and charging interface are accepted at the site.
  2. Account or authorization: whether activation, fleet enrollment or another access step is required.
  3. Operating status: whether the intended stalls are online at the planned arrival time.
  4. Price and payment: the applicable rate, fees and payment method.
  5. Site rules: any reservation, queuing, parking, trailer or dwell-time restrictions.

Do not treat a map listing, an announced stall count or the word “open” as evidence for all five details.

What did Pilot announce beyond Ellabell?

Pilot calls Ellabell the first of thirteen planned Pilot-Tesla Megacharger locations. Its October 8 announcement said twelve additional heavy-duty charging sites were under construction, with locations in Tulare, California; Fort Stockton, Texas; and North Las Vegas, Nevada nearing completion at that time.

Pilot says participating locations will have four to eight stalls and names major freight corridors across California, Georgia, Indiana, Nevada and Texas. Those construction and network statements are plans, not proof that every announced site is already available.

How should a fleet plan around Conley and Ellabell?

  • Confirm the exact site address and current operating status close to departure.
  • Plan energy with a reserve for payload, weather, traffic, detours and accessory loads.
  • Verify access, price and payment instead of assuming passenger-Supercharger rules apply.
  • Keep an alternate stop or operational recovery plan if a stall is unavailable.
  • Avoid promising a fixed 30-minute turnaround from the maximum charging-power headline.

For the separate vehicle-production, customer-delivery and official range context, see the Erawish Tesla Semi deliveries guide. It owns those questions; this page is limited to the Georgia charging route and its planning boundaries.

What remains unconfirmed?

The reviewed sources do not establish unrestricted public access, a reservation system, current pricing, payment method, continuous uptime, live queue data, eligibility for every Tesla Semi, support for non-Tesla heavy trucks, or a universal real-world charging time. They also do not show that the two Georgia sites form a complete Southeast network.

Bottom line

Conley and Ellabell give Georgia 14 Tesla Semi Megacharger stalls near the Atlanta and Savannah ends of a major freight lane. The exact locations, stall counts and published up-to-1.2-MW figure are useful planning facts. Access, price, uptime and truck eligibility still need a live check before a fleet relies on either stop.
