Tesla has started production at its new Megafactory in Shanghai, its second such factory, and it is starting to ship to its first customer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Energy storage has been Tesla\u2019s silver lining over the last few quarters.<\/p>\n

While its main business, the automotive business, has been shrinking in both revenue and margins, its energy storage business has been growing at an impressive pace.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s mainly due to its Megapacks, its popular utility-scale energy storage systems, and the production ramp at its Megafactory in California, where it produces those battery packs.<\/p>\n

Tesla has ramped up production at the plant with a capacity of 40 GWh.<\/p>\n

The company has also been building its second Megafactory, this one in Shanghai, China.<\/p>\n

Today, Tesla announced that it has produced its first Megapack at the Shanghai factory and released these pictures:<\/p>\n
