Tesla Energy deployed 6.9 GWh of energy storage products in the third quarter of 2024. With these results, the company has already exceeded its full year 2023 energy deployments, with one whole quarter left in 2024.
While Tesla Energy’s 6.9 GWh worth of deployments in Q3 2024 are lower than Q2 2024’s 9.4 GWh, it remains extremely impressive. It is, if any, still the highest energy deployments in the third quarter by Tesla Energy to date.

Overall, Tesla Energy has deployed 20.3 GWh of battery storage products this 2024 so far. In comparison, the company deployed 14.7 GWh of energy products in full year 2023; 6.5 GWh of battery storage in full year 2022, and 3.99 GWh of energy storage products in full year 2021. This also means that Tesla’s battery storage deployments in Q3 2024 were higher than the company’s full year deployments in 2022.
Tesla’s energy deployments have accelerated with the ramp of the Lathrop Megafactory, which produces the company’s flagship energy product, the Megapack. The Megapack is designed for grid-scale use, as it offers 3.9 MWh of energy per unit. The Lathrop Megafactory has a capacity of 40 GWh per year, which is equivalent to about 10,000 Megapacks annually.

Tesla Energy is expected to see a boost in Megapack production capacity next year, as the company is currently building its Shanghai Megafactory, which is also expected to have a capacity of 40 GWh per year. Considering how efficient Tesla’s Gigafactory Shanghai in China has become, however, there seems to be a good chance for the Shanghai Megafactory to produce more than 40 GWh worth of Megapacks annually.
The Shanghai Megafactory broke ground in late May 2024. Expectations are high that the facility could start initial Megapack production sometime in the first quarter of 2025.
