IPP Genera PR has chosen Tesla to provide the BESS technology for a 430MW/1,720MWh pipeline of projects in Puerto Rico, set to enter commercial operations at the end of 2025.
RWE has submitted a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) application with a local authority in Colorado to construct a 200MW standalone BESS using Tesla 2XL Megapacks.
