Sorry, I'm busy changing the world

10 GWh of our industrial energy storage products are now operating across Australia!

That's equivalent to 160,000 Model Ys. And we're just getting started

[Tesla Megapack @Tesla_Megapack]

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

The @cleannrgcouncil's latest Quarterly Investment Report highlights 2 Megapack projects in Australia

@Akaysha_energy's 311 MW / 1,244 MWh Elaine BESS – the largest storage project to reach financial close in Q4 2025

@EquisEIA & SEC’s 600 MW / 1,600 MWh Melbourne Renewable Energy Hub – the largest battery to come online in Q4 2025

[Tesla Megapack @Tesla_Megapack]

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

Megapack grid-forming inverters are key to enabling global grid stability and reliability

This technology allows Megapack to resist changes on the network by creating its own voltage signal, preventing blackouts and allowing more renewables to come online

[Tesla Megapack @Tesla_Megapack]

2.2GWh of Megapacks are operating at Neoen Collie Battery, supporting Western Australia’s transition from coal to more sustainable and resilient energy sources

[Tesla Energy @teslaenergy]

12.5 GWh of energy storage deployed in Q3

Between January 1 and May 16, Connolly, our Autobidder optimized site in Texas was the highest earning battery project in ERCOT North load zone on a $/MW/year basis

[Tesla AI @Tesla_AI]

Invites to our Bay Area ride-hailing service are going out now

[Shane Bannister @Shane_Bann]

Fun panel at @cleannrgcouncil #ACES2025 today riffing with friends and colleagues @Akaysha_energy, @eku_energy, Fluence & CORE on the business case for #BESS. While we agree on a lot, including that the industry is in a great place, it was nice to discuss some more prickly topics

[Tesla AI @Tesla_AI]

FSD Supervised understands when to exit a toll booth

Using its pillar & side repeater cameras, the car can see the transaction happening – and automatically proceeds once the transaction is complete

Real world AI, baby
