Tesla's Megapack has been deployed at a new 500MWh battery storage facility in Queensland, Australia, named Swanbank Battery. This project, costing approximately $214 million, aims to provide energy quickly and cost-effectively, transitioning from a former coal-fired power station. CleanCo Queensland's CEO highlighted the project's importance in enhancing reliable, lower-emission energy supply. The facility can supply power for up to 2 hours and is part of CleanCo's strategy to expand its clean energy portfolio, including wind, solar, and hydrogen production.
