Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Tesla Incorporated (NASDAQ:TSLA) (Austin, Texas) last week added a contract to deliver more of its Megapack lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) units. Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Database show billions of dollars' worth of active and planned BESS projects in the U.S. utilizing Tesla's technology.
Tesla signed a contract with Intersect Power (Beaverton, Oregon) to deliver 15.3 gigawatt-hours (GWh) worth of BESS units for the clean-energy generation company's solar-plus-storage portfolio through 2030; more than half of the contracted capacity is assigned to four unnamed Intersect Power projects in California and Texas that are planned to be operational by the end of 2027.
Megapack units are designed to store more than 3.6 GWh of energy, enough to power an average of 3,600 homes for one hour.
All of Intersect Power's projects in Industrial Info's GMI Power Project Database either have a low probability (0-69%) or medium probability (81-99%) of moving forward as planned, although, according to a related press release, including previous orders, the company will have almost 10 GWh of Megapacks deployed by the end of 2027.
"Intersect continues to be an exceptional partner, and their development expertise combined with the plug-and-play nature of Tesla's vertically integrated technology enables the speed and scale needed to enhance grid resilience and support greater renewables integration," said Mike Snyder, senior director of Tesla Energy.
The Megapacks to be installed at Intersect Power's projects will be produced at Tesla's megafactory in Lathrop, California. Subscribers to Industrial Info's GMI Industrial Manufacturing Plant Database can click here for a plant profile.
Among the BESS projects underway in the U.S. set to utilize the Megapack technology are two efforts in California from Arevon (also known as CD Arevon USA Incorporated), which was spun off from Capital Dynamics Limited (New York, New York).
Arevon's $165 million BESS addition at its Vikings solar farm in Imperial County will utilize the technology to provide up to 150 megawatts (MW)/600 megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable energy for times of high demand or when the sun isn't shining. Construction of both the solar and BESS projects are expected to wrap up in August. Vikings is contracted to provide renewable energy to San Diego Community Power, which provides power to residents in select service territories, including San Diego, belonging to San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E).
Meanwhile, construction of the standalone $220 million Tanager Battery Storage project in San Jose, which is designed to provide up to 200 MW of renewable power, is expected to wrap up in mid-2025. Rosendin Electric (San Jose, California) is providing engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) services for the project. Click here to read more information.
The largest BESS project underway utilizing the Megapack technology is project owner Strata Clean Energy LLC's (Durham, North Carolina) standalone, $450 million Scatter Wash BESS project in Pheonix, Arizona. At full capacity, the BESS unit will be able to provide about 250 megawatts (MW)/1 megawatt-hour of renewable energy. Engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor M.A. Mortenson Company (Minneapolis, Minnesota) is expected to complete the project in 2025, when the unit will begin providing power to utility Arizona Public Service (Phoenix) under a 20-year tolling agreement.

One of the BESS projects in development planned to utilize Tesla's Megapacks is the 100-MW East River BESS in the Astoria neighborhood of Queens, New York, which will be built on the site of the former Charles Poletti Power Plant, a fossil-fuel facility that halted operations in 2010. The New York Power Authority (NYPA) is leasing the property to project developer 174 Power Global Corporation (Irvine, California)--a subsidiary of Hanwha Group (Seoul, South Korea). The project is expected to kick off next year and wrap up in early 2026, after which a seven-year energy-supply agreement with Consolidated Edison Incorporated (NYSE:ED) (ConEd) (New York, New York) will go into effect.

ConEd delivers electricity, natural gas and steam, and serves 3.5 million customers in New York City and Westchester County.
