Some people may be asking what the point is in replacing their energy storage solution with a Megapack, considering that it essentially functions in the same capacity as the one they have now, but there are many reasons to switch.
Ease and Simplicity
As already stated, the Megapack is fast and easy to install, so there is little downtime to replace an existing system with the Tesla model.
Smaller Footprint
One of the Megapack‘s biggest selling points is that it takes up a smaller footprint than traditional systems, which leaves room to expand for other equipment or to double down on energy storage.
Grid Control
We all know that while renewable energy is the future, it can be intermittent at times, and the MegaPack helps that by storing the energy when it is made so that it can be used in times of intermittency. This product also supplies voltage and capacity support by injecting and absorbing reactive power to maintain local voltage levels and discharging at times of peak capacity to reduce demands on distribution and transmission infrastructure. Most importantly, it creates a localized grid that will keep the power on even if the main grid shuts off, which can save countless dollars in work hours and keep your employees safer.
Monitoring and Service
Service can be provided to the grid based on signals sent by system operators, so if there is ever a question about the operation, it can be addressed before it becomes a problem.
