For comparison, 20.2 GWh is what the Grand Coulee Dam can produce in 4 hours of operation.

I live in Texas and I've recently seen a number of wide load hauls of grid scale batteries. Not sure where they are coming from, but they were all heading out west. I assume to wind/solar to capture them when costs are low and balance the grid later. For Texas being the gas state, it is crazy how much renewable stuff I see moving around.
The existing batteries in Texas and California have already delivered a coulee-dam-year (21TWh) so far in 2026.
