Elon Musk’s Secret Solution to Texas Electricity Problems

Elon Musk is entering the Texas energy market, with the construction of a giant battery connected to an electric red in the case that my case collapsed. The medium, first published by Bloomberg, marks the first major incursion of Tesla into the epicenter of the United States Energy Economy.

A Tesla subsidiary registered as Gambit Energy Storage LLC is quietly building a 100 megawatt energy boosting project en Angleton, Texas, is 65 miles[65 km]from Houston. A battery of this tamaño could feed 20,000 hogs in a caloric day of war. Workers in the maintenance team, the crew and disobedience to the observers, but can see a Tesla logo in the face of a worker and the public documents will be used to confirm the company paper.

The property registers in the archives of the Brazoria district state that the Gambit management is the same as a Tesla installation near the company’s automotive plant in Fremont, California. In a presentation before the Bolsa and Values ​​Commission of the United States, Gambit figures as a branch of Tesla. Tesla executives did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

While acknowledging the tornado tornadoes in Texas in February, leaving millions of people without electricity during the day, Musk repeats a Twitter para burlarse del Electric Trust Board of Texas, o Ercot, (Texas Electricity Confidence Council), the group without fines that manages the electricity supply to more than 26 million customers. “I do not know this R (of reliability)”, he wrote. For 49 years, Musk has recently moved to Texas and its various companies are expanding their operations in the state.

The battery maintenance system being built by Tesla’s Gambit branch is registered in Ercot. Warren Lasher, Senior Director of Ercot Systems Planning, says the project has a commercial operation voucher proposed for June 1. The latter is located next to a Texas-New Mexico electric substation.

Although Tesla is known for its elegant electric vehicles that work with batteries, it always has more than one car company: its official mission is to “accelerate the transition of the world to sustainable energy”. The batteries in a range of public services are needed to increase the electricity produced by wind and solar energy, but also to be able to convert them into lucrative opportunities. To increase the cost of electricity when it comes to prices and demand for batteries, battery owners can turn to red when prices are high.

Tesla has spent years expanding into residential energy technology. In Maart 2015, Musk unveiled a battery product for the hogar, named Powerwall, with an event called at its Los Angeles design studio, assisting dozens of executives of public service companies and energy. One year later, Tesla acquired SolarCity, the solar panel installer founded by Musk and his first. Musk announced an “solar tech” that has gone through various iterations without converting into a competitor in the market.

Pero the line of products of the company ya va más allá del hogar y llega a la electrica. The Tesla Powerpack and the Megapack, which are the most expensive designed for public service customers. Launched in 2017, Tesla’s Batteries in the South of Australia, launched in 2017, will feature an electric park and will be able to surpass the electricity generated during the nights for daily demand. With 100 megawatts, the mayor is launching a project of batteries in the world during his launch.

Well, Tesla’s energy focus is on the other side of the agenda ahead of the deal, which is more competitive in manufacturing and selling electric cars, Musk and its continuously operating energy team as a key part of its creation. “I believe that Tesla Energy will have a large share of the same value as Tesla Automotive”, said Musk during a speech to discuss the company’s results in July 2020. “Energy negotiations in addition to the larger automobiles ”.
