Your image of a mega pack for the inverter section is Mega pack 1 which did have a stack of inverters hooked to a common DC bus, Mega pack2 puts these with each battery module and thus has a common AC link in the cabinet. Look at video from Lathrop, Three bus bars. Also look at first responder guide for MP1 vs MP 2 shows MP1 with batteries that output DC but MP2 battery modules output 480VAC meaning all power electronics are with each battery module. Simplifies protection and adds even more redundancy. Plus these 162kwh/ 80kw battery + power electronics are very mass producible and can rack into a MP faster then MP1 battery plus individual inverter slices.
exactly，Megapack2 have no spectial inverter bays, it's integrated with battery modules. Shall locate together with BMS PCBs.
I check the material mentioned above, It's exactly what you mean. Many thanks.
Just a FYI, a device that converts AC to DC. is a rectifier. A device that converts DC to AC is an inverter. A megapack would have to have a device that performs both functions. Most EVs have an onboard rectifier that converts the AC coming from the wall to DC for the battery. An EV also has an onboard inverter that converts the DC from the battery to AC for the motors. A super charger provides DC directly to the battery in the car substituting the rectifier in the car with a bigger one in the super charger. I understand that most people don't know the difference and really don't care. That's ok. :)
I was going to say something, but wasn't sure how to post a comment about it without it sounding rude. It's not a big deal. I suppose using the term inverter is close enough.
Yes, thanks for saying so
@Allen Tweed It's not always easy pointing it out to ignorant crowd (history is full of Galileo, Copernicus and Bruno etc), my position is to tell it and explain it hoping to spread the knowledge, at least helping the penny to drop at a later point.
Thanks - we all need the education in this electric age
Could solar panels on a roof directly charge the battery with DC current?
there is a typo in the title, megpack
Megapack*
@@ndikun3846 yeah no shit but ‘megpack’ is what the title says…
He should change the audio so that whenever he says Megapack in the video a deep voice comes on for a split second and replaces it with Megpack.
That's a whole lot of meg griffins.
Meg 👅 ~~~~~
That first major power backup Tesla installed in Australia a few years ago was game changer in my opinion. I don’t know if Tesla made money on that, but what they did get is great PR. Since then countries like California ( joke ) have realized just how economical and instant power on demand they are. I’m sure many of the viewers here have heard that Tesla Energy could very well become bigger and more profitable that Tesla auto. And I would agree….. One example is the Philippines. They have brown outs on a regular basis. With some of these mega packs brownouts would be a thing of the past.
Brownouts?
@@ndikun3846 Brownouts or blackouts. I have flown into Manila and the whole airport didn’t have power. I had to wait there until the evening flight to another city which also has blackouts for a whole day.
Much of SE Asia is the same as indeed much of the world. Indonesia seems pretty keen as does Mexico. Both these vast regions would see a massive increase in the standard of living for everyone. If he's going to build cars then it would create lots of jobs all down the line. Good stuff and he's going to use local South American minerals because he obviously will build batteries. Break ground March 1st on both locations. Get battery production up and running toot sweet because the Megapack effectively negates the possibility of overstock. This would please the shareholders because profits would go through the roof and it would also have a positive effect on society. Good for Elon and good for the brand name.
The guarantee that Elon made to Australia (install guarantee date) showed what a commitment and nerve he has. And, of course, Tesla Energy made that deadline!
this video is a 10/10 congratulations.
Excellent video to bring people up to speed. Thank you. Excellent production and tremendously informative.
Rectifier goes from AC to DC, Inverter goes from DC to AC
Came here to say this…
I wanted to write it too ^__^
Rectifiers normally just change the polarity leaving all else virtually the same. Inverters generate waveform and duty cycle; change voltage and current. They often cause distortion and harmonics too
A rectifier converts AC to DC but doesn't change voltage level which the Tesla Megapack is doing for sure. Let's call it "converter" for both cases (in and out) :)
@@Steppenkater It's complicated! Let's say it depends who is talking. Those of us with engineering and technology education know the difference.
For example a Tesla car can accept AC to charge up, energy stored in batteries hence DC and the car propulsion, speed regulation and control requires 3-phase AC. In simple terms: AC - DC - AC
A Tesla Megapack gets and supplies AC, therefore again it has both rectifiers and inverters inside it.
Please note "A rectifier converts AC to DC but doesn't change voltage level..." isn't strictly true - it does change the voltage level as it needs some voltage difference to operate
The new Sodium battery hybrids coming soon will bring these megapack prices down even further making them even more cost effective to install and were you aware that the Tesla Powerwall software not only manages your solar charging but it sells your spare solar energy and pays you for it. That Tesla solar energy from millions and millions of solar powered homes end up in Tesla storage battery's and sold to the local municipal suppliers. Musk says Tesla will be the biggest electrical distributer in the US and his solar Powerwall's will make Tesla the biggest energy producer as well.
Sodium batteries might come at earliest in 2028? It will take years to hit scale and there has been big problems in the cyclelife of those batteries.
@@AA-jk9dg I understand that BYD are releasing a car this year that will contain sodium batteries
Tesla will not be a producer but provider. There is a difference
Hi, about those side impact bars.
@@AA-jk9dg reaching scale is not the problem. The design probably is. Tesla got batteries to scale already and they said they can produce any battery composition at scale
Once fully realized. Tesla will will gain serious investment respect.
I can’t believe how far off everybody’s radar this side of Tesla’s business is. great video
I love you for this information. We needed this insights
Superb video that succinctly hits all the issues.
Great video. So, here's the question, why can you have a Megapack in chilly environments but not Powerwalls installed on pads outdoors in say Massachusetts?
Props for the SouthPark "I'm Sorry" reference.
Pleas let me know where do I get more info regarding the MEGA PACK. Thank you.
Do they actually manufacture battery cells 24hrs a day ? 😮
So how fast can a megapack charge a tesla car being direct DC to DC? And how many cars can a megapack charge at once, and how many cycles till empty?
Thanks for hosting this, Lars. Different to what we expected but we've never seen an investor day before. Wow. Just wow!
Can you make a video where lithium based batteries vs sodium batteries and how they are manufactured on large Scale?? 🤝
TSLA $1,500 by 2025 🤞🙏🤑
I suppose those megapacks should be well protected. Imagine an attack, the fires would be just immense!
only 24 a day? - Ummm, they need to step it up 10x
Hmmm... 24 a Day, (3 MWh each = 72 MWh a day, "Per Factory!")
Times a Month = 720 a Month (@ 3 MWh each = 2,160 MWh or 2.16 GWh!)
So, about 25 GWh/Year!
Not so bad! (From just One Factory in California!)
Actually, all this chasing India for Reduced Tariff on Import Cars, when they really should just start with Tesla Energy there, first? Smaller Factory, More Profitable, more useful, too! Help fix the Grid there, before bringing in the BEV's!
Maybe same in South Africa & the rest of the Continent! Same for South America!
Cars were a great start, but now might be time to push the Security of the Power Grid, on multiple National Levels!
Brilliant as usual
But Wait! There's More! I hope. Isn't it true that the cash flow doesn't stop with the sale of a new pack(s), Tesla's proprietary power management software generates a little monthly use fee, doesn't it?
Pumped hydro storage should be considered. Where possible consider upgrading hydroelectric dams to pumped hydro storage hybrid. Allows for huge storage of energy. Augments mega packs, peaked plants.
A giant bucket, or to simplify, a giant battery, which it is.
Megapack is the future♻️🌍♻️
Wauw..! A future with various choices a waits you
incorrect information. The two model3 inforamtion except the price, the range and top speed are exactly the same, just one is in km and the other is in mile, that is it.
hi
Tesla aircraft😉👍
Where are the advantages, and can other companies catch up?
Who is buying them? Companies? Municipalities?
Big energy companies that sell energy duhhhhh
1 pack every 60 seconds better and Tesla will get there one day
They can produce 1 every hour or are they currently producing one every hour. I heard they only making 12 a day?
This presentation was made for 5th graders, witness the first few minutes
bro takes 5 minutes to tell me what a battery is
Let’s call it a GIGA pack
How many itty bitty D cells are wired together in one mega pac?
GRID SCALE... are you going to address the payment schedule? I'm sure it won't be free.
If Megapacks use imported batteries, do they still qualify for IRA/ITC credits?
Megapacks use batteries from the Nevada Gigafactory, so they share the credits with Panasonic.
no, megapacks aren't made for homeowners... thts powerwalls.
@@billweberx Hi Bill, @ 7:05 TTS states that Megapack 2XL units use LFP batteries imported from CATL in China.
@@babyUFO. Hi baby, ITC (Business Energy Investment Tax Credit) predates any tax relief on powerwall. It's an incentive initially designed to support matching commercial solar with storage (i.e. Megapack) . The IRA has expanded this credit to any grid storage system that supports renewables or grid stability. There seems to be an ITC/IRA requirement that battery storage must use US manufactured batteries. If Tesla is importing LFP cells for cars and Megapacks because there are no domestic LFP battery manufacturers, will they qualify for the credit?
1. MegApack not Megpack (in the title)
2. every 68 and something minutes not every 60 minutes
3. even if it was every 60 minutes and even if they made 24/7 365 days a year: 365 x 24 = 8760 (not 10,000)
Full of holes and cracks: 3 strikes you're out!
Stop Press:
4. straight from the horse's mouth (Tesla website):
"....enough energy to power an average of 3,600 homes for one hour." (not 4000)
No one cares.
@@billweberx Count yourself nobody
@@soundslight7754 What are you.. twelve?
@@billweberx Ask your mum, she'll teach you how to ask the question
@@soundslight7754 Yup. Twelve.
You didn't mention burning fossil fuels. That's a pretty glaring omission since it's the majority of power. Makes me question your agenda versus truth telling capacity
Lol. Maybe. If we can mine enough copper and lithium. Which is highly doubtful.
I believe there's a real opportunity here. Much like the Marshall Plan of WWII Ukraine will be rebuilt. I suggest using Tesla mega-pack wall units solar panels and electric vehicles to create a virtual power grid in Ukraine. Create this on the world stage where everyone is already watching. Demonstrate the capabilities of renewable energy. Who knows? Ukraine could become the world's first renewable energy exporter. Just think about it....
These the same battery packs that take firefighters 45 minutes to put out?
They can’t, they could only grab popcorn and watch 😂
Bahhhhh! Again calling a rectifier an inverter regarding AC into DC is incorrect...
Tesla could likely DOUBLE their prices with NO LESS DEMAND and just get OBSCENE profits!! NJOY.
No like. If "playing the youtube game" means lying to get views - that's short term gain - long term loss for you.
I like your videos, but please don't turn lying into just a joke. You;re better than that.
Hate to burst your bubble but the cars cannot deliver power in the form of AC
Yes they can, but only to the motors. The powertrain is actually AC.
@@ChristophHemmerlein Caught me, but you know what I mean
use metric units!
Thanks for the simplistic model of the bucket but it doesn’t work when the summer to winter energy ratio is between 2 in the southern states and 3 in the northern states.
You cannot afford a battery that stores 3 months of energy. Similarly you cannot design a solar array for winter that is 3 times too large for summer.
Duh
It's sweeter deal to buy grid storage direct from CATL
ish 60ish. could work
Tesla aircraft😉👍
