In response to the LA fires, the Megapack team partnered with the US Forest Service and Footprint Project to deploy Megapack Chargers in evacuation zones Megapacks serve as high-capacity hubs powering emergency trailers, replacing noisy, costly diesel generators with efficient, reliable energy storage
Summary of efforts Tesla has done to support employees & communities impacted by the LA fires Impacted employees (home lost or destroyed by fires) We're covering housing accommodations & supporting employees with transportation & meals. Superchargers All our Supercharger sites are back online, except Pasadena Supercharger, which was in the middle of the fire. Megapack Chargers (MPCs) 2 units deployed Friday 1/10 to relieve congestion in Thousand Oaks for evacuation & families losing power due to Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS). 1 unit deployed Saturday 1/11 in Altadena at the Sheriff’s Station for first responder support, providing power & Starlink connectivity. It’s located within their closed perimeter with utility power currently down. 2 mobile switchgear units with step down transformers that enable an MPC to support powering up 208V buildings (vs only 480V) & more utility than charging up EVs. 2 units in San Bernadino We're also working on deploying units in the Palisades directly Mobile Powerwall Units (MPUs) Deployed with support from 3rd party non-profits in Altadena & Topenga Canyon with Starlink & power for devices & fridges. Cybertrucks (all with Starlinks installed) 3 Cybertrucks are now located at Los Angeles Sheriff's Department in Altadena (+ bed filled with water & snacks) 2 in Pasadena 3 in Zuma Beach & Malibu ––– MPCs at Thousand Oaks Supercharger MPC at Altadena Sheriff's Station MPUs in Topenga Canyon + team installing them

Now operating - Eland 1, a hybrid solar + Megapack project, owned and operated by Arevon This is the first project deployed with Tesla's new site-level controls that seamlessly regulate power output to buffer the intermittency of solar and provide a firm resource to the grid. The hybrid configuration allows more solar power to be installed at the site than the interconnection nameplate, while also avoiding costly solar curtailment

On February 9, a generator in Oahu tripped causing a rapid drop in frequency. Megapacks at Plus Power’s KES facility responded within 250 milliseconds, providing 50 MW of fast power response from grid forming, frequency droop, and fast frequency response (FFR) controls, stopping frequency decline and ensuring the grid recover to the stable frequency level

80 Megapacks are now operating at @CSEnergyQld's site in Queensland, providing energy to the grid during peak demand and lowering energy price volatility
The 100 MW/200 MWh Chinchilla Battery recently commenced commercial operations. Featuring 80 Tesla Megapack systems, the battery can power 30,000 homes for two hours in the evening peak before needing to recharge. @Tesla_Megapack #westerndowns
