🛢️ World's Biggest Battery...
...Goes Up in Flames
Good morning, here's what the OilPatch Team has for you today:

World’s Biggest Battery Burns in California
The world’s biggest battery storage site, unfortunately located in California, is on fire.
It has been on fire since Thursday.
It has promoted the evacuation of 1,500 people.
It has sent toxic smoke into the atmosphere.
And it has raised questions about the reliability of battery storage.
The world‘s largest lithium battery facility at Vistra Power Plant in Moss Landing, CA continues to burn.
Officials have no timeline for extinguishing the toxic blaze, but for reference the last lithium battery fire in California burned for 11 days
