Boralex and the Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation (SNGRDC) have commissioned the Hagersville Battery Energy Storage Park, Canada's largest operating facility of its kind. Featuring 334 Tesla Megapack 2XL units, the project provides 300 MW of power and 1,200 MWh of capacity near Lake Erie, supporting Ontario's grid reliability and renewable integration.
In the first quarter of 2026, two gigawatt hours of new battery storage capacity went into operation. The stock of stationary accumulators grew to about 28 gigawatt hours across 2.5 million units. The German Solar Industry Association warns against disadvantaging them in power plant auctions.

Site work has officially begun on a new $250 million Tesla Megapack battery energy storage facility in Western Australia. The project, known as the Neoen Muchea Battery, aims to bolster the state's energy reliability and support its shift to renewables. The development was announced on social media by Tesla news reporter Sawyer Merritt.
An Enverus report highlights how the rapid growth of battery storage in Texas has led to collapsing revenues. Capacity saturation in the US's largest wind market is driving down profits for operators. Questions persist around load forecasts in the region.
