According to Sawyer Merritt (@SawyerMerritt), construction has started on a $60 million Tesla Megapack battery energy storage site in Puerto Rico, marking Tesla's largest project of this kind in the United States. The initiative is part of a $533 million contract between Genera PR and Tesla for installing Megapacks at six power plants. AI-powered energy management systems will optimize battery operations, reducing energy production costs by up to $100 million annually and enhancing grid stability. The Megapacks, with up to four hours of runtime, are designed to reduce grid load fluctuations by 90%, improve renewable energy integration, and enable instant energy dispatch for peak demand. This deployment demonstrates the growing role of AI in large-scale battery storage and offers significant business opportunities in smart grid and renewable energy sectors (Source: Sawyer Merritt, Twitter).
