We r all little islands

Over the course of the last twelve months, Tesla has been hard at work at helping Samoa – a small Pacific island nation – transition from diesel-powered powerplants currently powering the nation, to 100% renewable energy. This is mostly done thanks to the revolutionary scalable Powerpack battery storage solution. The solution helps the small island nation, not just an option to capture all the abundant renewable energy, but also, to bring improved grid stability to its local utilities.

For housing is there really a need to be in a grid when u see so many islands now going to full renewable, we can all be little islands of power.

That's a good story.

This allows Samoa to integrate it with their current solar, wind and hydropower farms, in turn, allowing the energy produced in various parts of the day – eg. during the hours where the sun emits the most energy – to be stored and used in periods of the day where energy production is lower, but consumption is higher – eg. night time. This gives the small island country full real-time control over their grid stability, reliability, and security.
