Total didn’t specify where its new solar installations will be deployed other than at “5,000 of its service stations worldwide” including “800 in France” and they will be deployed over the next five years. The panels will be supplied by Sunpower, which is owned by Total.

Where is the Tesla Supercharger located?

The one located in Big Timber, MT is at gas station called The Fort. The one in Superior, MT is at a Conoco station that goes by the name S&S Foods according to Tesla's Supercharger map. Still probably not enough to budge the SPWR stock...

Is this a first for a gas station in the US?

A first for a gas station in the US. But it wasn’t a first globally. Last year, we reported that Tesla sold 12 Superchargers to the Manaseer Group to be installed at three of their gas stations in Jordan (pictured above). Those are privately held Superchargers and not officially part of Tesla’s network.
