Pure Shine Tesla uses solar energy to power the entire island

The Verge Chinese Station reported on November 23

This week, Tesla had just completed the acquisition of SolarCity for 2.6 billion U.S. dollars. To celebrate this big move, Tesla has just announced a shocking solar project: solar power supply program on Tau Island, American Samoa. . Before that, the island was powered by diesel generators. In the past year, through the transformation of Tesla, 600 households in the entire island of Tau have now been able to pass almost 100% of Tesla’s smart solar energy. The grid is powered.

The project truly demonstrated the impact of Tesla's acquisition of SolarCity. Tesla said that the entire island’s smart solar grid uses 5328 solar panels and can store 60 Tesla Powerpacks. However, at present, Tesla's acquisition of SolarCity is still a relatively risky decision, after all, the latter also has billions of dollars of debt. However, Tesla boss Elon Musk is still very optimistic about the acquisition, saying that this acquisition is a very important part of Tesla's clean energy power generation program.

Tau Island, after being transformed, will be able to save 10,950 gallons of diesel consumption and fuel transportation costs each year by using full solar energy. Tesla said that such an island consumes so much energy and transportation costs every year is a very unreasonable and unscientific practice, and the transformation of solar energy will have a major impact on the economy of the island.

Tau Island's "micro-smart grid" can hold the amount of electricity used for three consecutive days without sunlight, and it can take only seven hours to fully reserve electricity. And institutions such as hospitals, police stations and fire stations will all use solar power.

Tau Island has always been one of the islands most affected by global warming. The rising sea level and the erosion of seawater on beaches have had a very large impact on the island’s residents. This time, the entire island was transformed into solar power, which not only contributed to the reduction of global carbon emissions, but also played a considerable role.
