Elon Musk Sends Tesla Powerwalls To Ukraine
Posted On: March 11, 2022

Tesla CEOElon Musk took to Twitter once again in reply to Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, Mykhailo Fedorov. As we previously reported, Fedorov asked Musk for Starlink internet, received a response on Twitter, and got the terminals in fewer than 48 hours.


This time around, Fedorov tweeted to Musk to thank him for the second shipment of Starlink stations. Musk replied that the shipment also included some other goodies, though based on his reply, it came as a bit of a surprise when we learned there were Tesla Powerwalls in the shipment.


As you can see from the tweet below, Musk said the shipment also included "power adapters for car cigarette lighters, solar. battery packs and generators for places where electricity is not available." Apparently, the solar, battery packs and generators are expensive Tesla Powerwalls, which are essentially intelligent home battery packs.


All of this information came to light from a lengthy internal email that was obtained by CNBCThe publication notes that the email was sent by Tesla’s director of Northern Europe Axel Tangen.


The message itself came from senior director for Tesla EMEA Joe Ward and HR director for the EMEA region Mariam Khalifa. CNBC also writes that it removed photos of Tesla's employees and facilities before posting the email.

My Take: Another small thing that Tesla is doing to try and help that terrible situation in the Ukraine.
