Do you take an issue with the actual, factual reporting in the article? Or even with the factual accuracy of the title?
All of your complaints on this thread come across as you desperately trying to defend Tesla for something that...actually happened. Yes, it happened "during testing." But it still happened.
As proven by most of the comments in this thread, people think it was a random fire.
That’s how editors and journalists control public opinion.
There was no bias in the reporting. There was a fire, during testing. And that's what the articles actually reported. It's possible that the fire wasn't related to manufacturing/assembly issues on Tesla's end (i.e., that it was related to installation), but as the fire just happened that information won't be known for a few days.
The only bias here is your own. Tesla makes mistakes. Accept it, and move on.
It may be too early to be attributing blame to Tesla. Even the safest systems can be compromised by technician scissorhands or first day forklifter. Something as simple as damage in shipping can cause these issues. Which is why they test them immediately after installation.
I don't think anyone would honestly think Tesla can't make mistakes or rush something they weren't prepared for. Especially considering their cars... But they are certainly accomplishing something amazing in Australia.
They test the units individually, before connecting them to the system/grid/etc, especially if there are safety risks involved, like a fire that can't be put out until it burns itself out.
Everyone defending Tesla on this simply doesn't understand what proper safety looks like at an industrial/utility scale.
