Elon Musk Has Finished Building The Worlds Biggest Battery In Less... BEST

Some of the biggest battery factories in the world currently produce about 4 GWh of li-ion batteries per year, which would indicate that Tesla Gigafactory 1 can at least produce as much energy capacity on an annual basis.

Gigafactory Nevada (also known as Giga Nevada or Gigafactory 1)[6] is a lithium-ion battery and electric vehicle component factory in Storey County, Nevada, US.[7][8][9] The facility, located east of Reno, is owned and operated by Tesla, Inc., and supplies the battery packs for the company's electric vehicles (except vehicles produced at Giga Shanghai).[10] If fully built out, the building will have the largest footprint in the world.[11]

As of 2014[update], the projected capacity of Gigafactory for 2020 was to have been 35 gigawatt-hours per year of cells as well as 50 gigawatt-hours per year (5.7 MW) of battery packs.[23] Production could be equivalent of supplying 500,000 Tesla cars per year.[27][98][148] When finished, the factory is planned to produce more lithium ion batteries in a year than were produced in the entire world in 2013. As of May 2019, Gigafactory 1 has achieved a theoretical capacity of 35 gigawatt-hours per year but utilization levels have resulted in a 24 gigawatt-hour output, according to Panasonic President Kazuhiro Tsuga.

2017: Quite a number of the goals Musk set for his many endeavors look at the really near future, as close as 100 days in fact when it comes to building the world's largest lithium-ion battery in Australia. Musk said back in March that he's planning to complete the battery in just a hundred days, or else it'll be free.

Touted as the largest lithium-ion battery plant of its kind in the world once finished, the joint project between Tesla and Panasonic continues to take shape in the Nevada high desert just east of Reno. 1e1e36bf2d
