Tesla is set to build a large battery that will be linked to the Texas grid. It was said that Elon Musk’s company is quietly working on the project and aiming to add a 100-megawatt battery to the said power grid.
Tesla’s battery to help solve the energy crisis in the state
As per Reuters, Tesla’s plan was revealed just days after the storm in February temporarily downed almost half of Texas’ power generating plants. This led to power outages and the death of many residents in the area. What’s more, the raging storm also drove electricity prices to skyrocket up to 10 times the normal rate.
In response to the disaster, it was learned that Gambit Energy Storage LLC, a Tesla subsidiary, has started to build more than 100-megawatt energy storage. The company is said to be working quietly in Angleton, Texas.
With this move, it was also confirmed that Elon Musk is slowly getting into the power market in Texas. The construction of the enormous battery is connected to a weak electric grid that almost disintegrated last month in the aftermath of the fierce storm that hit the state. In any case, this is Tesla’s first major project in its venture into the U.S. energy economy.
The power of Tesla’s battery
Bloomberg reported that the 100-megawatt battery that Tesla is constructing is enough to power around 20,000 homes in Texas during the hot summertime. It was said that it is obvious that Elon Musk’s company is keeping it low by working without publicly declaring the project is being worked on by Tesla.
In fact, workers at the site have been covering the equipment as much as they can to prevent people from gathering or discourage onlookers. Then again, the public gained some idea about the company behind the construction due to the Tesla logo that is visible on some of the hats worn by the site workers.
Meanwhile, the last winter storm that hounded Texas left millions of citizens without power for several days. The state-wide blackout led Elon Musk to poke fun at Ercot or the Electric Reliability Council of Texas for its apparent inefficiency.
