It's been a miserable few weeks for Malcolm Turnbull's government, stalled by myriad cock-ups and controversies. But the greatest challenge it faces continues to be Australia's crisis over energy supply and cost. Who hasn't been shocked by a
It was mocked, described as a waste of money and compared to the Big Banana. But South Australia's giant battery has turned out to be a success, stabilising the state's energy grid and confounding its critics.
"Made on Earth by humans"
Today I compare two teams of batteries: Expensive vs Cheap, tested over four rounds to see which is the longest lasting and which is the most cost-efficient.
Australia has determined that Tesla 100MW battery system saved $40 million and the system had cost only $66 million. This is a 20-month payback on the investment.
Tesla opened its first Gigafactory on July 29, 2016 with only 14 percent of the factory operating. They had three out of twenty-one sections operating.
We talked to the co-founder of Tesla, JB Straubel, about why giant batteries are crucial to the future of power grids everywhere. Batteries are becoming more useful at powering bigger things like bikes, cars, and soon, entire cities. We explore some
