So right now if memory serves Tesla has 2 locations building SC. One in the US somewhere with a capacity I don't remember, and another in China making (edit up to) 10k a year.

They use all the chargers they make, and there isn't enough as it is.

So I'm not sure what BP buying them does? Is tesla building another factory, or is this moving a charger tesla would have built and deployed to be under a different name, but really, there's no extra chargers being made?
