Picture Shows Over $300M Worth of Tesla's Megapack Battery Storage At Gigafactory Nevada

While Tesla Inc TSLA is best known for its electric cars, the company also produces energy production and storage products. The company's Megapack is industrial-sized storage that can be scaled up to power small cities with stored solar energy.

While supply chain issues have made building anything with batteries a difficult task, it seems Tesla has amassed quite a few of the Megapacks. Sawyer Merritt on Twitter shared a picture outside of Tesla's Gigafactory Nevada showing almost 250 Megapacks, valued at over $300 million, seemingly ready for delivery

Tesla describes the Megapack as a large-scale, rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy-storage product. The batteries can be used to store excess solar power for use at night or on dark days. The Megapacks can also act as a power source in case of a grid outage, allowing operations to continue even when the grid is down.
