According to Joe Tegtmeyer on Twitter, Tesla has delivered new Megapack units to Giga Texas, specifically for the Cortex 2 GPU cluster building that will train the Optimus robot. As reported by Tegtmeyer, 48 out of 62 delivered Megapacks have been installed at Cortex 2 using large-scale Sarens cranes, with capacity for up to three times more units. This expansion is in addition to 140 Megapacks already deployed at two other Giga Texas locations, including one dedicated to the Cortex 1 cluster. The total installation could reach approximately 300 Megapacks, potentially making Giga Texas one of the world's largest battery storage sites. According to Tegtmeyer, the total energy capacity may reach around 1,170 MWh with a total power capacity of about 300 MW, ensuring robust support for Tesla’s AI data centers and Optimus model training operations.

According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla has begun delivering new Megapacks to Giga Texas to support the Cortex 2 GPU cluster building, which is expected to eventually host several hundred Megapack units (source: Sawyer Merritt on Twitter). This large-scale deployment of Tesla Megapacks will provide robust and sustainable energy storage critical for powering high-density AI compute clusters, enabling continuous operation and reducing reliance on grid power. For AI businesses, this signals a growing trend of integrating advanced energy solutions with AI infrastructure, opening opportunities for scalable, energy-efficient data centers and edge AI applications.
