On October 27, related media exposed the Tesla Megafactory factory. It is reported that the plant is located in Lathrop, northern California, and will be used to produce a giant energy storage battery , Megapack.
The factory is located in Lathrop, northern California, just an hour’s drive from Fremont, which is also home to Tesla’s main electric vehicle manufacturing plant in the United States. It took only a year for the Megafactory to be basically completed and recruiting started.
Tesla has previously been producing Megapacks at its Gigafactory in Nevada, but as production ramps up at the California Megafactory, the factory has the capacity to produce 25 Megapacks in a day. Musk revealed that the Tesla Megafactory aims to produce 40 megawatt-hours of Megapacks per year.
According to official information, each unit of Megapack can store up to 3MWh of electricity. Compared with similar systems on the market, the space occupied by the Megapack is reduced by 40%, and the number of parts is only one tenth of similar products, and the installation speed of this system is faster than the current The product on the market is 10 times faster, making it one of the largest capacity energy storage systems on the market today.
At the end of 2019, a mobile energy storage charging vehicle officially operated by Tesla was exposed, which has the ability to provide fast charging for 8 Tesla vehicles at the same time. The energy storage device mounted on the charging car is this kind of energy storage battery Megapack. This also means that Tesla’s Megapack may also be used in the automotive “energy storage” market.
