Reply to comment by EscapeRich9091 in eli5: how long would power stay on if the power company abandoned their post? by larsattacks94
I understand that and it’s the same concept/ principles. They have techs who monitor and rotate between the fields keeping them in order/ up and running. The company I work for ‘Faith Technologies’ is huge into green power, and we actually did the largest solar farm in the US. I’m just speaking from personal experience working on them it may be different overseas or in different regions.

As far as I know, Grid-scale li-ion (or lipo more likely) installs are super rare. A quick google says in 2021-2022 there was only 16gW of grid scale li-ion/lipo storage. Our peak usage is on the order of terawatts.
