LFP battery energy storage system, Tesla Megapack 2 (4-Hour) is supplied as a containerized AC block. Its nominal energy is 3.0856 MWh with about a 4-hour duration. It has liquid cooling and 94% AC round-trip efficiency.

Use Cases

The specifications of Tesla Megapack 2 (4-Hour) together point to use in front of the meter. It belongs to the utility-scale class by energy capacity, and it supports DNP3, used in utility control systems.

Capabilities

For Tesla Megapack 2 (4-Hour), the specifications suggest renewable colocation, operating alongside a wind or solar plant on one site. Its AC block includes the inverter. A listed configuration of 4 h makes it a candidate for energy shifting, storing charge and releasing it hours later. Its shortest listed configuration is 4 h, and that configuration points to capacity value, standing in as firm capacity when demand peaks.

Both measured at the grid connection point. The plant's own power use is already included in the losses.

The calculator estimates the full "plant" round-trip efficiency (RTE) at the point of interconnection. Some values are pre-blocked depending on information on a particular ESS. The rows that are marked "each way" are one-way efficiencies; they are applied on charge and again on discharge. We then square them. To enter a bundled PCS efficiency value, use its rated-power value, not peak. If the PCS skid already includes the LV/MV transformer, set Transformer LV/MV to 100 % so those losses are not counted twice.
