Reply to Tesla Megapacks Arrive In Hawaii, Kicking Coal To The Curb | Tesla's Megapack battery system is stepping in to fulfill the state’s power requirements after the last shipment of coal. by chrisdh79
The real news isn't battery packs. The real news is that Hawaii is now generating enough green energy to require energy storage. Via google: "Hawaii has the highest share of petroleum use in the United States, with about 62% of electricity coming from oil in 2017".
We all should know that battery packs do jack squat for climate change if all the energy is fossil-fuel generated. Hawaii is sorely behind in this regard. I would prefer an article about Hawaii's growth in green energy and ongoing projects we have (eg tidal generation).
But "Tesla" gets the clicks. You can't expect too much from InsideEVs.com I guess. Maybe it's a paid article. /tinfoil

Reply to TIL This palliative care paper determined that a stream of air from a bedside fan relieves dying patients of dyspnoea (breathlessness/ shortness of breath) as equally as supplemental O2. by No_Cauliflower_5489
