South Australia (state), which is experiencing some difficulty supplying the State with electricity, is doing a deal with Elon Musk (Tesla) to build a massive lithium battery, the biggest ever made,with electricity supplied by wind farm generation. If it`s not built within 100days of the agreement (scheduled for mid October) it`s going to be provided free for SA.
I`ve read it could service 30000 homes overnight, but I`m really not sure of the projected capacity or lifespan. Or what happens if wind conditions are calm. As the largest ever built I assume it will take a lot of lithium.
