Similar to Tesla’s electric vehicle business, Tesla Energy is a division that seems to be obsessed with innovation. This was highlighted recently in a video that was posted by Tesla Energy in its official social media account on X, where it showcased one of its innovations, the Mobile Powerwall Unit (MPU).
The video shows that Tesla’s MPUs are comprised of Powerwall 2 units, which have been replaced by the electric vehicle maker with the Powerwall 3. The whole setup seems pretty compact, with the MPU seemingly being designed for portability and quick deployments.

As noted by Tesla Energy Engineering Manager CJ Espino, Tesla’s Mobile Powerwall Units are designed to create energy storage systems that could be quickly deployed to people and communities in need. The Engineering Manager noted that each Tesla MPU features two Powerwalls, a Photovoltaic Inverter (PVI) for solar strings, and a Gateway, which is a controller between the user of the grid and the Powerwalls.
With the MPUs, Tesla is able to deploy its energy storage systems to areas that are most in need, such as those that were affected by Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. As noted by Espino, Tesla Energy has already manufactured and deployed 18 of its MPUs in North Carolina, and there are five more being built. A few MPUs have also been distributed to other areas worldwide.
During the third quarter earnings call, Elon Musk stated that Tesla’s energy storage business is “growing like wildfire” with strong demand for both Megapack and Powerwall batteries. Tesla Energy’s margins also reached a record 30% in Q3 2024. The CEO further noted that Tesla expects to achieve more than double the previous year’s energy deployments this 2024.

Tesla sees 9,900 new vehicle registrations in China in July’s third week
Tesla introduced minor updates to the Model 3 and Model Y long-range variants recently.

Tesla recorded 9,900 new vehicle insurance registrations in China during the week of July 14–20, a 19.3% decline from the 12,270 units that were listed in the prior week. The drop follows a sharp surge in early July, when registrations rose 145% week-over-week.
Weekly registrations dip after early July surge
Tesla’s drop in insurance registrations last week follows a notable spike earlier this month. During the week of July 7–13, the company registered 12,300 vehicles, up 145% from just 5,010 units the week before. That surge was largely driven by strong domestic demand for the locally produced Model Y crossover and Model 3 sedan, both built at Tesla’s Gigafactory Shanghai.
Tesla introduced minor updates to both long-range models recently, as well as a minor price increase for the Model 3. The Model Y’s pricing remained unchanged, a move that likely helped maintain momentum in the highly competitive Chinese EV market, as noted n a CNEV Post report. Despite the recent dip, the Model Y continues to lead Tesla’s local deliveries, highlighting its role as the company’s top seller in China.
June sales remain strong despite lower exports
Tesla’s June wholesale figures in China totaled 71,599 vehicles, up 0.83% year-over-year and 16.1% from May, according to the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA). Retail sales in the country reached 61,484 units, making June Tesla’s second-highest domestic month of the year, behind only March. The figures suggest that the Model Y and Model 3 are seeing some stable demand in China, despite emerging competition and pricing pressure in the local EV segment.
However, exports from Gigafactory Shanghai dropped to 10,115 units in June, down 13.9% from last year and over 56% from May. The shift suggests Tesla may be prioritizing domestic deliveries ahead of new product introductions. Tesla, after all, is expected to launch the six-seat variant of the Model Y, called the Model Y L, in China in the coming months.

In 2018, CEO Elon Musk said he was hoping to build a full-scale 50s era diner that served as a drive-in movie theater. Seven years later, it has officially come to life, and in typical Tesla fashion, it opened at a very appropriate time of day. We heard of people waiting as many as 13 hours for the site to open.

Elon Musk’s Neuralink posts massive update with new milestone
This is the first time Neuralink has successfully implanted two patients in a single day.

Elon Musk’s Neuralink has posted a massive update with a new milestone that puts the company’s progress into perspective. Over the past few years, we have seen tremendous strides in Neuralink’s capabilities.
Now, the company has completed a new first, bringing more hope to the future of this revolutionary technology.
Neuralink’s third brain chip patient shares first video edited with BCI
Neuralink revealed in an update on Monday morning that it has officially completed two implants in a single day, with Patients 8 and 9 both receiving devices over the past weekend.
“Both participants are recovering well and in great spirits,” the company said in the short update. It did not disclose which day the surgeries were completed, but it did state explicitly that they both occurred on the same day:
We successfully completed both P8 and P9 this weekend, our first time performing two surgeries in one day. Both participants are recovering well and in great spirits. We are looking forward to supporting them on their Neuralink journey.
— Neuralink (@neuralink) July 21, 2025
Musk said that Neuralink’s capabilities could do “life-changing good for ultimately millions, maybe billions, of people.” Right now, it is being used to help combat life-altering diseases, such as ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, as well as cervical spinal cord injuries.
Eventually, Neuralink could resolve things like anxiety, depression, and blindness, among many other ailments.
Its Link device also received FDA recognition for speech restoration earlier this year, marking a significant bit of progress in the program as it explores ways to cure ailments of various natures.
