The “News” links are utterly useless.
All they care about is the effect on Hwy. 1 traffic.
No detail on the fire itself or when/how it will be put out.
I did find this, “The system includes 256 Tesla Megapack battery units on 33 concrete slabs”.
I could not determine how these are packaged, is it possible to quickly remove and isolate the burning unit, or is the fire going to spread to adjoining units?
One station is warning folk to close their windows and turn off their air circulation, how Green is that!
Here's an idea. Tesla and SpaceX cooperate with their technologies.
Add a rocket pack underneath each unit. If the system detects a burning unit, ignite the rocket pack and steer the burning unit far out into the Pacific Ocean.
I know I shouldn’t laugh but I have to chuckle a little bit.
All the green energy and EV nerds will fight you to the death over how great all things electric are.
Windmills killing birds…..who cares
The mirror-solar panel facility in the Cali desert, frying birds in mid-air….who cares.
Windmills catching on fire and no way to recycle the blades….who cares
Maybe a better design would be to install in open containment vessels that could be flooded
