> Tesla and Musk have said they want their technology to be embraced by other players in the industry. They have promoted open-source software and criticized the overuse of patents, and Musk has even said Tesla’s Superchargers are “being made accessible to other electric cars,” though it’s unclear whether any agreements are actually in place. There don't need to be any special agreements in Europe because Tesla uses the CCS type 2 Combo plug. Teslas can charge on all charging networks with no adapters and, correspondingly, Tesla can easily open their chargers to all makes of EV. So far, only 10 Tesla charging locations in the Netherlands have been opened to all EVs: https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/1/22757159/tesla-supercharge-ev-pilot-netherlands https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/1/22757159/tesla-supercharg... The EV market in the US is much smaller than the EV markets in Europe and China: https://www.ev-volumes.com/country/total-world-plug-in-vehicle-volumes/ https://www.ev-volumes.com/country/total-world-plug-in-vehic... The two main reasons why are the stricter fleet emissions standards and the superior infrastructure standardization in Europe and China. Hopefully North America will be able to standardize EV plugs soon. All other EV manufacturers have switched to CCS type 1 Combo for passenger cars in North America. What remains is for Tesla to do the same.
