Ty Sir.
Merci👍👍👍
Those 53 units look like transformers across from the out bound lot
52 transformers @ 6:39 are similar to the transformers used for the existing Megapack installation.
Another mega pack installation going in somewhere
Thanks Brad

1:31. EOL Transport Yard. Constructing the lighting tower footings.
4:51. Westside, Tunnel Project. Ramp. Removing the salvaged apron slabs.
7:27. Tesla Road, west. Sand Hills pipeline route preliminary works either side of Tesla Road. Works covered by the Site Plan 2024-005132SP that generally applies to all the works west of the highway. Some documents are viewable on the City of Austin site. Site Plan is ‘downloading’……
8:03. Westside. Pipeline works. There’s an EOL in the way. Job for HDD.
10:35. Tesla Road, north. Ductbanks intersection structure. Cable tray installed.
10:44. BIW, apron. Left. Manhole riser trimmed to height.
10:59. Casting, east. Left. Track trenches inside, constructed over 12 months ago, have been uncovered. Concrete placed on the apron in front of the closely spaced columns. Curing blanket over.
11:24. Plastics, apron. Pellet delivery.
12:19. Southend, west. Apron. Grease trap installation. Middle and top section no longer on the apron, must be installed in the blue trench shield, although the black top isn’t visible.
13:37. Southend, south. Central Fire Escape Passage. Bundle of styrofoam. More at the east Fire Escape Passage. Insulating the walls perhaps. Don’t recall that being done inside.
14:12. Southend, south. East Fire Escape Passage. Wall concrete being placed.
14:53. Southend, Cooling Tower. Left. Couple of rows of the green and blue manifolds. Another temporary set-up. Centre. Black pipe. Radical increase in diameter as it connects to the brown pipe. Another reducer* on the ground to the left of the boom-lift.
14:59. Southend east, roof. Bottom left. Roll of the white membrane expansion joint.
15:26. Southend, Cooling Tower. Top left. Large brown pipe at 90deg to the others. Seen at 14:53 also.
16:17. Sand Hills power station. Pipeline delivery.
Transmission Towers. A curiosity with the transmission lines that supply power to the Tesla Substation/Switchyard (officially Hornsby Bend), is that they bypass the Sand Hills power station.
The lower lines did provide power to the temporary switchyard/substation.
16:44. Sand Hills power station. Track across from left to right has blocks spaced at regular intervals to support the pipeline as it is assembled.
17:00. Highway bridge. Equipment beyond may be the HDD boring site.

8:03 Sand Hill pipeline project....
The permit on the Austin site says the pipeline will stay in the right of way....
"Line will run from AE Substation on Fallwell to the west side of 130 then north along the ROW to just north of Tesla Road"
Two possibilities...
1) The route will take a jog to the east.
2) Tesla may have worked out an agreement with TxDOT to use the right of way. In which case we will likely see a HDD rig soon.
17:00 Definitely a job for HDD boring. Unless the pipeline will take a jog to the right and go under the bridge?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn 7:27. Sand Hills Pipeline route. Incredibly, the plans did download. Not much Telsa related information other than the route through the westside. 1.9 miles 3057m, 20" 500mm Natural Gas pipeline. Terminates/connects in the clearing north of Tesla Road.
Dives under SH130 at 380', road is at 455'.
@@DessieDoolan Good to hear the download works. It stalled for me too yesterday. I ran out of patience and gave up. 🙂 I will try again! But at least we know there will be HDD bore under the freeway.
Any thoughts whether the pipeline extension is taking gas out or bringing it in to Sand Hill?
Or maybe just an infrastructure improvement, connecting one pipeline to another?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn The north end is designated 'Meter Station'. South end (Sand Hills) 'Tap Point'. Tap means to me where it would cut into an existing supply. May mean something else in US.
@@DessieDoolan I think you are right about it tapping into the existing supply. Meaning no expansion of the power plant is in the works.
The mystery is what happens at the north meter station? Connection to another pipeline? Or to provide gas to a future project?
Oh, by the way, just got my copy of the plans! Thanks for mentioning that the download eventually works.
Thanks Brad!
Sand Hill power plant Lateral extension:
@ 16:37 A row of flatbed trucks lined up with pipes for the pipeline. The pipeline will cross under 130, then head north.
@ 7:17 (North of Tesla road) Here is the other end of the pipeline work. Here is the permit for the work.......

Sand Hill Lateral Extension
The applicant is proposing underground, natural gas line along with associated improvements. Line will run from AE Substation on Fallwell to the west side of 130 then north along the ROW to just north of Tesla Road. There will be a few valve stations along the route.
Tunnel project:
@ 4:57 Tunnel exit with 3 ring sections removed.
New power supply to the building:
@ 10:17 All cables now pulled through the duct-banks to the Mega-vault.
@ 10:34 Cable trays installed in the structure at the duct-bank intersection/crossover.
52 Megapack transformers:
@ 6:39 A good close up view of the secondary side cabinets. Notice they are marked 480/277 V on the doors. That is 480 volts/277 volts.
Is there a reason for laying single casts on the ground (see 10:39) instead of putting them right away into racks? This seems to create double work; Joe's early morning flight the other day showed that the CT BIW area is supplied with casts in racks. Racks everywhere in fact, which makes sense to use BIW floor space as efficiently as possible. And no shortage of empty racks either, looking at the lay down areas.
I think they are waiting to be scrapped. Immediately rejected after being cast. Not been trimmed, or machined yet.
2 weeks ago Munro did a video podcast with the IDRA team.
Worth watching the video if only for what is revealed at 39.50.
Immediately that the casting is removed from the giga-press it is checked for 'integrity', then cooled (air or water), then trimmed (de-gated).
The takeaway for me was that any casting seen untrimmed is junk. They don't even bother putting them in racks, as there's plenty of space to leave them outside. This apron area of BIW is often where the large black recycling trailers are parked.

Always love your music selection.
No musician will call it music. Its called techno muzak. Actually just weired sounds made from a computer and a drum beat generator, and it doesnt relate to Tesla or the Texan landscape at all.
Tell me, what kind of music relates to Texas and the Texas landscape?
That’s a lot of Tactical Grey CT’s
Have you seen any Cybertruck’s with the light bar installed? The truck being loaded at 3:03 looks like tactical gray decor not a white interior.
Thank you
03:13 - 04:05 What is causing all the oil (or fluid) leaks?
Gas pipe line? What's the point of that? Ain't never seen one get installed like that. Mowing the grass here and there; etc.
It's like an open air parts bin
lol.
Very expensive and well organized 'junk' bin
Now what do they need all those big transformers for I wonder. They're about the same size that the Megapacks use, but there are no plans to expand the BESS here afaik. Outbound lot very full. Hope moving vehicles off site doesn't become a bottleneck.
Power plant expansion?
Extension of the gas pipeline to or from the power plant.
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn Sand Hill burns natural gas and has a 595 MW capacity. Any permits to expand the plant or increase output?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn The Original pipeline is or did run underneath the Gigafactory
@@BTSflyer I thought it ran just east of the factory along the transmission line easement? Specifically east of the Austin Energy Easement. Or is that a different gas pipeline?
@@bigtvjunky9119 That was my first thought. 😊Just did a quick check for permits and didn't find any. I will continue to look.
Are they sandbagging cybertrucks?
It's an interesting question as to why CT production isn't greater, for sure. The expected release of the range extender has been put off 'infinitely' so there may be battery constraints involved. If they have indeed cracked the dry cathode process then there is no need to expand 'cybercell' production lines.
20k produced so far.
A month ago, the run rate of CT was at 1400 per week = 75k a year.
Targeting CT production to be profitable by the end of the year.
Not bad considering the amount of new technology put into it.
Finally getting some work done on Elons water cooler.
Bring on a $35k truck and devastate the car industry. Glad it in aluminum if the stainless is expensive.
If you read this; make 10 posts.
Elons bank account is big enough; make the trucks $20k and watch them sell.
There’s somewhere in the neighborhood of one million or more reservations at much higher prices. It’s not selling them that’s the problem; it’s ramping production to satisfy demand.
@@CarlWithACamera How many of those reservations do you think are still active?
Take that supercomputer and put it to work generating crypto for unlimited cash flow.
An absolute total waste of a valuable resource (energy). For what? Fake money?
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn cash it out. Imagine if you had a bunch of bitcoin.
@@DavidJohnson-tv2nn Texas is the bitcoin mining capital of America.
@@bigtvjunky9119 It is still a huge waste of energy. And hasn't Texas had power problems from time to time? While these bitcoin miners just waste huge amounts. of energy.
@@rtz549 You don't think it would be hypocritical for Tesla to claim they want "a sustainable future" and want to make the world a better place, while at the same time.... Ran bitcoin miners? Shoveling 130 MW down the crapper.
