Tesla files to sell electricity in Texas, reports say

Tesla is looking to sell electricity in Texas and planning to build two giant batteries in the state, according to reports. On Thursday, Texas Monthly revealed that Tesla Energy Ventures - a subsidiary of the car and energy company owned by billionaire Elon Musk - had filed an application with the Public Utility Commission to sell electricity in Texas. The reports come after the state suffered a power crisis in February, with Musk criticising the reliability of its electricity.

"[Electricity Reliability Council of Texas] not earning that R," he tweeted at the time.
