According to Sawyer Merritt on Twitter, a new $30 million Tesla Megapack battery energy storage system (BESS) has gone live in Sapporo City, Hokkaido, Japan. The 50MW/104 MWh project, developed by Manoa Energy, utilizes Tesla Megapack 2XL batteries. This deployment highlights the growing trend of integrating advanced battery storage with AI-powered energy management systems. AI algorithms are increasingly used to optimize grid performance, forecast energy demand, and enhance battery efficiency, opening significant business opportunities for AI solution providers in renewable energy, grid stability, and smart city infrastructure management (Sawyer Merritt, Twitter, 2025-12-01).

According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla has officially opened the world's largest Supercharger station in Lost Hills, California, featuring 164 charging stalls, 12 pull-through stalls for towing, and extensive infrastructure including 11 MW of solar arrays and 10 Tesla Megapacks with 39 MWh of energy storage (source: @SawyerMerritt). The site leverages AI-driven energy management to optimize charging demand and renewable integration, presenting significant business opportunities for AI applications in smart grid optimization, predictive maintenance, and efficient EV charging operations. This development highlights the expanding role of artificial intelligence in large-scale sustainable transportation infrastructure and energy management solutions.

According to Sawyer Merritt, Tesla has secured a $170 million Megapack order from TagEnergy to deploy a 150MW/600MWh battery energy storage system alongside what will be the largest wind farm in Australia and the southern hemisphere. Advanced AI-driven energy management will optimize storage and grid integration, supporting nearly 10% of Victoria’s electricity needs. This project highlights the growing trend of using AI-enhanced battery storage to maximize renewable energy output and grid reliability, offering significant business opportunities in the AI-powered energy sector (Source: Sawyer Merritt on Twitter, Nov 21, 2025).

According to @SawyerMerritt, Elon Musk's xAI is deploying over $375 million worth of Tesla Megapacks at its new Colossus 2 supercomputer cluster in Memphis. This strategic move enables xAI's data centers to rapidly scale AI computing workloads while enhancing power reliability and efficiency. The integration of advanced energy storage technologies is designed to support exponential AI progress, lower operational costs, and improve environmental cleanliness, providing significant benefits to both xAI’s AI infrastructure and the local community (source: x.com/xAIMemphis/status/1991158890453459029).

According to Sawyer Merritt (@SawyerMerritt), construction has started on a $60 million Tesla Megapack battery energy storage site in Puerto Rico, marking Tesla's largest project of this kind in the United States. The initiative is part of a $533 million contract between Genera PR and Tesla for installing Megapacks at six power plants. AI-powered energy management systems will optimize battery operations, reducing energy production costs by up to $100 million annually and enhancing grid stability. The Megapacks, with up to four hours of runtime, are designed to reduce grid load fluctuations by 90%, improve renewable energy integration, and enable instant energy dispatch for peak demand. This deployment demonstrates the growing role of AI in large-scale battery storage and offers significant business opportunities in smart grid and renewable energy sectors (Source: Sawyer Merritt, Twitter).
