Elon Musk and Tesla have made good on their promise to help Australia with its energy crisis, installing the world's largest lithium ion battery. The battery will live in the state of South Australia, home to 1.7 million people who regulary suffer from power cuts and energy shortages. "The Tesla Powerpack system will further transform the state’s movement towards renewable energy and see an advancement of a resilient and modern grid." Australia has also experience blackouts in the summer of this year, with the South Australia government looking for long-term solutions, including renewable energy, to secure the future of its grid. The company won the contract through a competitive bidding process and is teaming up with French renewable energy provider Neoen’s Hornsdale Wind Farm on the project.
