A few days ago I watched the Tesla new battery which is capable to store 10Kwh of Energy. This is actually a huge achievement. It is not like anything we have seen before. I think Elon Musk is a genius, I have always been thinking that. but he really is an inspiring human being with amazing capabilities.
The amazing thing about this new battery system is that it can not only be used for private usage but for bigger and scalable uses as well. the same battery can be stacked into a modular battery cell that can power cities and, countries and even the entire U.S!
The most amazing thing that I have came across like many others was the belief that in order to get enough solar energy for the planet we would need to cover 30% of the earth with solar panels. That’s actually not true.
The actual square that would be needed is extremely small compared to the size of the US and on top of that it would be on roof tops. so there won’t be any need for more space usage. the red dot in the middle is the amount of batteries that will be needed to store energy for the entire US.
Is this for real?
Yes My friends it is for real. we can stop the CO2 emissions, we can start right now. and you probably say that the solution will be extremely expensive. well one 10Kwh Battery costs $3,500 USD. and on top of that Elon keeps all of their blueprints open sourced. This means that they let anyone else go into the market and make a change, design their own models and distribute them.
There is nothing more important than to stop the Co2 emissions and I am a big fan of Tesla. I really think many of use should stand up and shout that we want to go off coal burning methods. the world has to stop doing that for our next generations to come.
Here is the full launch video as well so you can watch it. It’s truly amazing:
