"The world's biggest lithium-ion battery — built by tech billionaire Elon Musk's company Tesla last year — has survived its first summer in South Australia's mid-north." "And according to a new report by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), it's outperforming coal and gas generators on some key measures." "AEMO says the Hornsdale Power Reserve is capable of charging at a rate of 80 megawatts and discharging at 100 megawatts." "It has a storage capacity of 129 megawatt hours." "That means it could operate for about 75 minutes at full capacity."
