Battery Power...

#1 Post by TheGreenGoblin » Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:14 am

It seems Pretoria High School's star pupil is planning a "BIG" battery factory in Germany.
Tesla (TSLA) boss Elon Musk is aiming to build the world’s largest battery factory at the site in the state of Brandenburg, Germany where he is currently constructing Tesla’s first European car plant.

Musk, who recently became the second-richest man in the world, set out his ambition to create the massive battery plant near Berlin at a virtual European Battery Conference on Tuesday.

Musk was already planning a battery-cell production facility at the Brandenburg site. On Tuesday he said cell production in Brandenburg would begin with a capacity of around 100 gigawatt hours a year, before ramping up to 200 or 250 gigawatt hours a year.

“I’m pretty confident at that point it would be the largest battery-cell plant in the world,” Musk said.

“We welcome the project to manufacture the most environmentally friendly battery cells in Germany,” German economy minister Peter Altmaier said on Tuesday. “This creates 10,000 jobs.”
