The nearest Tesla fueling station in Ukraine is currently operational near Banska Bystrica in Slovakia and Katowice in Poland. According to the plans of Tesla, the electric charging station will be built near the Polish city of Rzeszów, then further, in Ukraine, on the way to Kiev.

On the map published by Tesla, it is indicated to the stations provided "the exact location may change". At present, the brand is located near the village of Oparissi in Radivylivskyi district. Until now, company representatives have not asked to allocate land to the local village council or the ODA. However, local representatives after Mask's statement have already been prepared for a meeting with investors.

Valentin Kreseluk, village president of Bugai, also ruled by Oparitus:

– billionaire We will do our best to help the investor. In addition to the charging station, we would like to offer Tesla to build a service station that would operate in the West region. We have already selected three site variants that we believe are suitable for the electrical charging station. They particularly drew attention to the fact that it was convenient for drivers to turn back on the Kyiv-Chop highway. I do not know what criteria Tesla will apply, but we will recommend a site at Oparitus – near the patrol station.

With Tesla's representatives, we will not talk about renting land, but ransom. For us, 1.1 hectares of land today pay 150 000 hryvnias a year – the money is small. Therefore, it is better to sell, with a large sum, you can do something for the community. Yes, and Tesla, I think, will be interested in buying the land. Twenty cents, we estimate, we will sell about one million hryvnias. We cited the example of Vodafone: a hundredth company bought us 50 thousand UAH

By the way, according to official data from the main service center of the Ministry of the Interior, there has already 204 electric vehicles in the Rivne area, including 11 Tesla. There are several loading stations in the area for such cars, one of them on the territory of the mentioned town council of Bugai village.
