Tesla's Big Battery Under Fire

Tesla is being sued by the Australian Energy Regulator after its South Australian mega battery allegedly fails to assist the power grid in times of catastrophe.

After a Queensland coal plant failure in 2019, the 150-megawatt battery failed to provide short notice energy supply, leading to a power outage across South Australia.

The state was using Tesla batteries after CEO Elon Musk promised to provide them for free if not installed in 100 days.
