The University of Queensland (UQ)

The Tesla Battery, with a capacity of 1.1 MW / 2.2 MWh, is the largest lithium battery installed at an Australian university and has generated significant interest from researchers and students alike.

The dashboard is displayed on a large screen in front of the battery enclosure and on the UQ Sustainability webpage which provides information on the battery’s current operating state and access to historical datasets.

Greenhat designed and developed this user-friendly dashboard to showcase the battery’s time series data (2-3 days) for various metrics. The dashboard was stylistically simple yet conveyed all relevant information, catering to a broad audience.

Greenhat implemented a serverless dashboard system, hosted as a static website in an AWS S3 bucket, with data retrieved via a JSON API. The dashboard successfully met UQ’s goal of communicating complex data in a user-friendly manner, and has since served as a valuable resource for both UQ stakeholders and the wider public.
