Tesla’s Megapack production expansion: Game-changer or just another factory?
Tesla’s new Megapack factory near Houston raises some interesting questions. With existing plants and this new one potentially mimicking the Lathrop facilitys 10,000 Megapack annual capacity, just how much energy storage is too much? Are we heading for a battery glut, or is Musks prediction of extreme demand spot on? Where will all this stored energy be used, and what impact will this have on the energy landscape? Will Tesla's aggressive expansion into energy storage give them an insurmountable lead, or are competitors poised to catch up? This new factory seems positioned to drastically shift the energy storage market, but in what direction? Lets discuss the potential implications and your predictions for the future.
