Congratulations for what? Everything Musk does is smoke, mirrors, and lies.


They can't even weld the model 3 bodies yet, something every other car manufacturer mastered decades ago.

Well, I wouldn't quite say "mastered".

Congratulations for what?

congratulations for stabilizing the entire electrical grid of southern Australia.

This is a fundamental improvement to the way electrical grid will work.

At high demand/high cost hours the batteries will be drained. At low demand/low cost hours the batteries will be charged.

It is a buffering device.

If you don't understand this maybe science is not your thing.

In other words, a capacitor.


You're not very knowledgeable about electricity I take it.

Maybe one day Musk will go mobile with battery wagons like the telegraph did 150+ years ago.
