Physicists Network recently reported that Australia's Prime Minister Jay Weidel said in a statement on the 23rd, the world's largest lithium-ion battery will be scheduled on December 1 to start the test, the well-known American entrepreneur Elon Musk in 7 The commitment to sign the contract in January - delivered inland to South Australia in 100 days - will be honored, and the contract was also agreed at that time that he would provide a free $ 50 million battery if not delivered on time.
Musk made the above commitment to help address the local power dilemma since South Australia hit an unprecedented storm last year that led to a major blackout in the country, and Wedel said that as the battery enters the regulatory test phase in the next few days, The world's largest lithium-ion battery (100 MW) will now be the backup power source for South Australia, linked to wind farms operated by the French energy company Neoen, and is expected to be, for the duration of a major power outage-to-power restoration, Thirty thousand households provide enough electricity.
Earlier reports claimed that Musk claimed that the backup power system was built Jamestown, 230 kilometers north of Adelaide, will be three times stronger than the largest system of its kind on the planet today.Experts have pointed out that the battery revolution Will help to change the application of renewable energy by coping with the large-scale power generated by wind and solar energy to cope with the intermittent maladjustment of the original power grid.
Australia is one of the most greenhouse gas emitters per capita in the world due to its extensive use of coal-fired power generation, and Tesla's vice president of global infrastructure operations has argued that ever-lower battery costs, combined with renewable energy, Reshaping the energy mix Now that the battery can be delivered on schedule, it is clear that the company has overcome the technical risks associated with large-scale construction projects that Musk once admitted.
Elon Musk is in addition to payments company PayPal, founder of electric car maker Tesla Motors and SpaceX, and chairman of SolarCity, a solar-panel installer recently acquired by Tesla.
