I am extremely proud that these will be manufactured in my hometown of Houston! Let's electrify the world!

The US department of energy needs to see this.

At the current rate, it would take Tesla about 26 years to power every occupied home in America assuming no ramp in production or increase in housing. Imagine how much faster this timeline could shrink as Tesla scales.

For those wondering about a Houston factory, it was reported on about 6 months ago:

Is this product only for grid operators? It would be nice if my new FL home could have a battery backup installed for the entire development by the builder. Like a micro-grid to protect against hurricane damage to the larger grid.

NEWS: Neoen Australia says it has begun construction of a new $220 million big battery project, which will also be the first project in the world to deploy Tesla's new Megablock product, its next generation grid-scale battery tech. Megablock combines four Megapack 3 units into a single deployable block offering 20 MWh units, each with an integrated transformer and switchgear. Tesla says this will translate into faster installations and lower costs for grid-level storage, up to 40% cheaper. Megapack 3 production will begin at Tesla's upcoming Megafactory in Houston, Texas in 2026 with up to 50 GWh per year of manufacturing capacity.

NEWS: BYD has launched its next-generation battery energy storage system. It has a unit capacity of 14.5 MWh, the highest globally to date. The energy storage system achieves an ultra-large capacity of 10 MWh within a space equivalent to a 20-foot container, BYD said. For a 1 GWh storage plant, it will cut the number of required units by more than half, reduce land use by one-third, and trim cell count by 76%, according to the manufacturer. It uses BYD’s self-developed 2,710 Ah Blade Battery cell, which the company claims is the largest energy storage cell in the world. "This next-generation cell delivers three times the capacity of conventional storage batteries, boasts a cycle life of over 10,000 cycles, and reduces the total lifecycle cost per kilowatt-hour to below $0.014 – a milestone that could reshape the economics of large-scale storage." BYD says it can cut project-level levelized costs (LCOS) by 21.7%. For a typical 1 GWh installation, total costs related to equipment procurement, transportation, and installation are expected to drop by around 30%. In addition, BYD has launched its new GC Flux grid-forming inverter solution, which covers the 2.5–10 MW capacity range. According to BYD, the inverter boasts a performance level approximately 38% higher than common industry standards and a maximum power density of 1,474 kW/㎡, which is around 130% above typical values in today’s market. The system provides an overload capacity of up to 3x for 10 seconds and reaches a peak efficiency of 99.35%.

NEWS: A massive new $450 million Tesla Megapack battery energy storage system is now operational in Victoria, Australia. It's the biggest completed battery project on Australia’s main grid, and one of largest battery projects in the world. It features 444 Tesla Megapacks and three Toshiba 500kV HV transformers, for a total of 600 megawatts of capacity and 1,600 megawatt hours of storage. It will soak up excess wind & solar power during the daytime and shift that energy to the evening peaks.

TESLA FLIPS THE SWITCH ON A MEGAPACK GIANT IN CALIFORNIA Tesla has brought a serious heavyweight online in Kern County, California: a Megapack battery system paired with 500 megawatts of solar generation. That combination puts the project among the largest solar plus storage sites in the United States, and it is now fully operational. At full output, the site can supply enough electricity to cover the annual needs of roughly 467,000 homes. More importantly, it does so when the grid actually needs it most. Power generated during sunny daytime hours is stored and then released in the evening, when demand spikes and solar production drops. That shift alone helps prevent outages and reduces reliance on gas peaker plants. The emissions impact is just as significant. The project is expected to cut more than one million metric tons of carbon dioxide every year, while adding real stability to a grid that has struggled during heat waves and peak demand events. California has quietly become the proving ground for large-scale battery storage, and this site shows why. Energy storage is no longer theoretical or niche. It is operational, reliable, and scalable. Tesla’s Megapack footprint keeps expanding worldwide, and projects like this make the case clearly. Clean energy is not just about generation anymore. It is about control, timing, and resilience.

🚨🇺🇸 TESLA SAYS MEGA BLOCK CAN POWER 400K HOMES IN UNDER A MONTH Tesla is putting speed at the center of its energy revolution. With Mega Block, the company says it can commission one gigawatt hour in just 20 business days, enough to power 400,000 homes in under a month. The push comes from a relentless focus on simplifying and automating every step of the process, backed by real-time simulations with customers and grid operators. The goal is clear: faster deployment, fewer risks, and confidence the system will work on day one. Source: Tesla

This is the sound of the all-electric Tesla Semi. Deliveries of the new Production Version begin this year: • Long Range model has 500 miles of range with a full payload. • 1.7 kWh per mile efficiency (average diesel semis are roughly 5–7 kWh per mile equivalent energy use). • Tri-motor powertrain with 800 kW of power (~1,073 hp), 3x the power of the average diesel semi. • The battery in the Semi is designed to last 1M miles. • Standard Range model (325 mi) has a similar turning radius as a Tesla Model 3/Y. • 0.4 drag coefficient. • Independent truckers are able to buy a Semi for use, not just fleet owners. • Semi fleet uptime is at 95% due to extremely low maintenance and reliability. • Integrated safety features in the Semi protect not just the driver but others on the road as well. • Future wireless charging. • Semi uses the same 4680 battery cells found in the Cybertruck. • Semi can power a whole refrigeration trailer or any powered unit. The technology is shared with Cybertruck Powershare.

Pauline Hanson thinks backup batteries in South Australia are for dildos. She said, live on TV, that they only provide power for 6 minutes. She's full of shit and an intellectual pygmy. Here are the facts of what is NOW not the largest battery in SA, The battery has a total storage capacity of 129 MWh and can discharge at 100 MW. Specifically, it is contracted to provide 70 MW for 10 minutes to the government for grid stability, but it also has a 30 MW capacity that can run for 3 hours (90 MWh) for load management. After its expansion, the system can discharge at up to 150 MW into the power grid, further increasing its capability NB - video: This is actually Pauline Hanson talking. We have just changed the voice to save people's ears from the terrible damage that her screeching can do..

BMW's upcoming all-electric iX3 SUV: • Expected EPA range: Over 400 miles (according to BMW) • Up to 400kW charging speeds. Can add ~200 miles of range in 10 mins • New “superbrain” will provide 20X the computing power of BMW’s previous system • Redesigned cockpit: Panoramic display shows information from A-pillar to A-pillar, 3D Head-Up, central display with matrix LEDs • Uses 2,000 feet less wiring than before • 800-volt • Bidirectional charging functions: Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) • 20% lower drag coefficient • BMW: "BMW Group’s latest driver assistance systems are among the world’s best. the iX3 merges the proven, rule-based assistance system with a new system based on AI. In an optimum symbiosis, this combination supports the driver even more precisely and reliably in challenging situations on the road. The Superbrain of Automated Driving pools all customer functions for automated driving and has a 20x faster processing speed than the previous system." • Production version of the iX3 will be unveiled in Munich next month (Sept). Will go on sale in the US in Q2 2026. • Expected starting price: Between $55k-$60k. BMW CEO on the new iX3: “This will be the benchmark of the industry. BMW can build superior electric cars, and the rest of the market will have to answer.”
