Being grid-scale batteries, Megapacks could perform tasks that are typically assigned to peaker plants. Megapacks are able to support the grid just as well, if not better, than peaker plants, and they are also a whole lot cleaner. . A number of high-profile grid-scale battery projects utilize Tesla Megapacks.
