A Tesla Megapack battery caught fire this morning at the local utility company PG&E’s Elkhorn Battery Storage facility in Monterey County, California, as reported by local news stations KSBW Action News 8 and KRON4.
Now there’s an alert from Monterey County Sheriff’s Office, North County Fire Protection District, and Pacific Gas & Electric issuing a shelter-in-place advisory for nearby areas, complete with an interactive map showing which areas are affected and road closures.
The fire started at around 1:30AM this morning, according to PG&E’s operations comm manager, Jeff Smith. Smith tells The Verge that PG&E is working with fire and emergency services to provide enough space to safely stop the spread of the fire. As of 1:55PM ET, it appears that the fire is still burning.

Switch industries to U.S. Big Health, the CEOs of which have just spent the past 2 1/2 years of facilitating the murder and maiming of hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens at the behest of donkey party/deep state/globalist “elites”.
Do you seriously want to suggest that CEOs of the domestic auto industry, as a class, are any different than the Big Health CEOs in this regard?
So you're saying the Democrat Party is comprised of menacing, tough, intimidating wise guys (such as AOC, Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, The Squad, Kamala, and Hillary) whereas ........ the Republican Party is an effeminate gaggle of namby-pamby wusses. I can't argue with that conclusion at all.

Ok, so the Democrat Party Cabal now owns the government, academia, the media, and the corporate world. Sounds like it's pretty much game, set, and match.

Huh? I’ve been saying for years the Democrats have been walking all over the Republican Party. Outsider Trump caught them off guard but they instantly stole his playbook to use against him. Trump Rule #1: “If someone hits me, I hit back 10 times harder.” That’s exactly what Democrats have been doing and continue to do to Trump, Republicans, and conservatives ever since Trump first stepped into the Oval Office in 2017. Nevertheless, EVs are a great advance over ICE vehicles. Well, not the weak EVs from the 50+ ICE automakers but definitely the Tesla EVs. You may be right that all those ICE automakers are simply wasting their time with EVs - maybe they should just leave the entire global EV market to Tesla. As President Trump said: Musk is “one of our great geniuses.” Unless you’re sure that President Trump is a total moron, he just might be on to something there.
You give Musk too much credit for sagacity and scientific understanding.
The EV regime is limited, doomed.
Manned space beyond the moon is an unreachable fantasy. Imagine trying to survive inside an impossibly large microwave oven that is always cooking on “high”.
Seek wisdom young Padawan.
You claim President Trump is "giving Musk too much credit for sagacity and scientific understanding." So now you're even seriously doubting President Trump's opinions. Wow. Basically, you're totally wrong about President Trump's reasoning skills, totally wrong about Musk, totally wrong about Tesla/SpaceX, and totally wrong about space travel.
4 for 4 ... not too shabby.
It's almost starting to seem as though you want to return to the Middle Ages ASAP. You do know science & technology continually advance over time, right? Hate to break it to you but your 1903 Baker Electric is not the same as the 2022 Tesla Roadster. Shocking, huh?
NPC.
So you refuse to even try to support your so-called arguments with anything even remotely approaching facts. Instead, you just lob childish insults. Got it. Sounds a lot like the standard Democrat/RINO tactic. As President Trump would say: “Sad.”
Project.
Also false, but believe whatever you want to believe.
LOL.
