IT Home reported on September 9 that Tesla has launched two new energy storage products: the next-generation utility-scale energy storage system Megapack 3 and the Megablock, which integrates Megapack 3 with transformers and switchgear. These two products were officially unveiled at a launch event held in Las Vegas. The newly released Megapack 3 is the next-generation product of Tesla's largest fixed energy storage battery system. This product features a larger 2.8-liter battery cell, significantly increasing the storage capacity: compared to the previous generation Megapack 2's 3.9 megawatt-hours, the new model can reach approximately 5 megawatt-hours. At the same time, Tesla has greatly simplified the cooling chamber structure, reducing the number of connection points by 78%. However, the product that garnered more attention during this release is the Megablock. This product directly integrates four Megapack 3 units with megavolt-level transformers and switchgear, and its appearance is as follows: Tesla stated that the installation speed of the Megablock has increased by 23% due to more assembly processes being completed in the factory rather than on-site construction. Mike Snyder, Vice President of Tesla Energy and Charging Business, revealed that with this new Megablock configuration, the company can deploy 1 gigawatt-hour of energy storage capacity within 20 working days. Additionally, Tesla claims that this product can improve the energy density of the site, achieving 248 megawatt-hours of storage capacity per acre of land. Snyder also announced that Tesla plans to start producing Megapack 3 in Houston by the end of 2026. IT Home noted that there were reports in March this year indicating that Tesla is building a new Gigafactory in Houston. According to this energy business leader, the factory's annual production capacity will reach 50 gigawatt-hours.
