Yet another Tesla fire

The safety of customers, employees, contractors, and the communities served is PG&E’s top priority.
Around 1:30 a.m. this morning, PG&E became aware of a fire in one Tesla Megapack at its Elkhorn Battery Storage facility in Monterey County.
PG&E is working with firefighters to stop the spread of the fire and provide a safe area for emergency response personnel.
Safety systems at the facility worked as designed when the issue was detected and automatically disconnected the battery storage facility from the electrical grid.
There have been no injuries to on-site personnel.
There are no electrical outages for customers at this time from the incident.

If they aren't careful people may start confusing them with Ford.

Good thing we don't apply the sams cancel logic to big oil

Fires happen at power plants of all types all the time. Like all the fricking time. They hardly ever go noticed beyond local news because they are so common and not at all out of the ordinary.
A battery pack catches fire though and people can't wait to tell everyone about it. Sad.
I think after a few years once we get some volume and solid data we will find that solar/wind/batteries are safer than fuels and nuclear.
