Another Tesla Megapack project in Australia has broken ground, set to replace a former coal plant as part of a sustainable energy hub in Queensland. The big battery is said to store enough energy to power over two-thirds of the city of Ipswich for two hours each night as demand increases when the sunsets.

At peak times, some US states and countries already have more renewable power than their grids can handle. Despite those periods of excess wind and solar power, because the ability to store electricity for more than a few hours is lacking, dispatchable power from the combustion of fossil fuels continues to bridge gaps in supply.
