Episode notes
Integrated Sustainable Platform
- Tesla views vehicles, charging, storage, solar, and autonomy as one seamless solution set for sustainable abundance.
- Integrating hardware, software, controls, and service under one roof accelerates innovation and deployment.
Batteries Reduce Peak-Driven Grid Expansion
- Global electricity demand and new large loads (like AI data centers) are rapidly increasing peak requirements.
- Batteries let the grid serve higher loads without wholesale infrastructure expansion by smoothing peaks.
Current Scale Still Far From Need
- Tesla has scaled Megapack deployments to tens of gigawatt hours and projected more coming online.
- Despite scale, the world still needs orders of magnitude more storage annually to reach sustainability goals.
