Looks like California should start building one of these 3.6GW 40GWh batteries since at this rate routine 120-150% renewable power days dont look so far off and it'll take about 6 years to build.

- jeffbee 5y agoSounds big but California built over 2GW/8GW-h of battery capacity last year, so I think we're on pace. Nothing fancy, just a lot of batteries in cabinets.

Tesla has also broken ground on a Megapack manufacturing facility (Lathrop, CA) employing 1000 people to build roughly 50GWh of storage per year. https://www.montereycountyweekly.com/blogs/news_blog/pg-es-new-tesla-powered-system-gives-moss-landing-another-battery-storage-boost/article_c6233e3e-bf41-11ec-b500-f3deb6b9ab0e.html https://www.montereycountyweekly.com/blogs/news_blog/pg-es-n...
