Tesla Megapack

Large-scale energy storage

[Tesla @Tesla]

Utility-scale batteries deliver clean energy when it's needed the most

Megapack + solar can be deployed at a fraction of the time a gas peaker plant takes – and at a competitive cost

[Tesla @Tesla]

Our mission is to build a world of amazing abundance.

Highlights from our 2025 Impact Report below

Last year, 10 of the 17 new utility-scale projects in Australia were Megapack

Delivering 4,130 MWh, these accounted for >50% of the total projects reaching commercial operation

23 years ago, we set out to prove that electric cars could be great – not just great electric cars, but the best cars overall.

We’ve gone from one electric sports car to 
– Over 9 million vehicles on the road

– Model Y becoming the world’s best-selling car of any kind only 3 years after first deliveries  

– 5 Gigafactories & other manufacturing sites across 3 continents

– The largest & most reliable fast charging network w/ over 80,000 Superchargers globally 

– Energy generation & storage systems helping power homes & grids (over 1 million Powerwalls installed, 70+ GWh of industrial energy storage operating globally across 2,200+ projects)

Today, we’re bringing AI into the real world with autonomy @Tesla_AI and robotics @Tesla_Optimus. 

Tesla is only getting started – a world of amazing abundance awaits

Megapack + Autobidder will soon be online in the east of France!

The 240 MW / 480 MWh Cernay-lès-Reims site is being developed by TagEnergy and will be one of the largest batteries in France

Tesla is providing full scope Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and the site will be operated using Tesla's Autobidder trading platform

138 Megapacks are now operating at CleanCo’s Swanbank Battery in Queensland

The 250 MW / 500 MWh battery is built on the site of a decommissioned coal plant and will deliver clean, reliable and affordable energy to the surrounding area

444 Megapacks are powering one of Australia’s largest grid-forming batteries

The 600 MW / 1.6 GWh Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub, co-owned by @EquisEIA and SEC, is online and delivering essential grid-services

Strategically located in western Melbourne near major transmission infrastructure, the project provides system strength and grid support as renewable generation increases across Victoria

Grid-forming inverters provide critical grid stability by independently maintaining voltage and frequency

Frequency is the heartbeat of the grid - when it's disrupted blackouts can occur. As more renewables come online, grid-forming inverters are crucial for maintaining frequency and preserving grid resilience

Megapacks are currently operating in grid-forming mode across the globe

[The Limiting Factor @LimitingThe]

'Renewables Don't Cause Blackouts: Grid Reliability Explained'

What's the real cause of poor grid reliability and higher power costs?

Poor regulation, planning, and design.

Solar, wind, and batteries actually increase grid reliability and lower power costs, especially when paired with grid-forming inverters.

So the best approach is an all-of-the-above energy strategy, streamlined permitting, flexible grid policies, and modernized utility operations.

There are engineering challenges with higher levels of renewables, but those will be solved as a matter of course and there are already solutions available off the shelf.

Ultimately, if we want truly limitless power we need to go to outer space, which is what I'll cover in the next video of this series 🤠

Megapack is providing efficient, cost-effective energy to Texas at a time when reliable power is needed most

Eolian’s Padua project will provide 1.7GWh of energy storage to enhance grid-stability and improve grid reliability

Megapack enables more renewables to come online faster & is helping existing generation run more efficiently: "We're actually enabling [thermal plants] to last longer. Instead of retiring a plant, having to build a new one because it’s so old — you run it less, it lasts longer" Aaron Zubaty, Eolian CEO

594 Megapacks have been installed at Copia Power's Maricopa project in Arizona - one of the largest Megapack deployments in the world

2,200 MWh of Megapacks will be paired with a 550 MW solar project, providing clean and reliable power to the region

[Tesla North America @tesla_na]

Our Lithium Refinery ushers in energy independence for North America

Regionalized access to critical battery minerals brings jobs, cuts emissions & helps accelerate our mission

[Tesla Megapack @Tesla_Megapack]

2 GWh of Megapacks are co-located with 500MWac of solar in Kern County, California at one of the largest solar-plus-storage projects in the US

The site will be capable of providing clean energy equivalent to the annual usage of roughly 467,000 homes, significantly reducing carbon emissions (over 1 million metric tons of CO₂ per year) and supporting grid stability
