As production of Tesla's "Gigabit battery" in Nevada is underway, the company is producing a lot of lithium-ion batteries in the hope of ultimately reducing the cost of sustainable energy.
Moreover, this can not only bring revolutionary changes to the automotive industry, but according to Tesla boss Elon Musk, Geely will soon be able to power the world.
In a recent conversation with Leonardo DiCaprio, an advocate for sustainable development, Musk said that it would take only 100 gigabit batteries to provide the world with all the energy, the CEO has called on companies that are "much bigger than Tez" to help accelerate the transition.
"The fossil fuel industry is the biggest industry in the world, they have more money and influence than any other industry, so I mean, musk told DiCaprio during a recent visit to Gigafactory on NatGeo TV that the more likely there will be some popular uprising against this, the better.
But I think the scientific fact of this problem is that we inevitably go to some degree of harm.
Therefore, the sooner we take action, the less harm we cause.
Musk explained that Geely's goal is to reduce battery costs and make sustainable energy more economical.
This can not only be used in developed areas, but also power remote villages with solar panels, charging battery packs without the need for expensive high powervoltage cables.
Musk believes that transforming the world into sustainable energy and even "controllable" through Gigabit factories ".
"We actually did the calculations and wanted to say, what is needed to transition the whole world to sustainable energy-what kind of entry point do you actually need? ’ Musk said.
"You need 100 gigabit batteries.
When DiCaprio questioned that 100 of these plants could provide electricity to the United States, Musk clarified, "No, the whole world-all the energy.
Still, the CEO explained that the move could not be done by Tesla alone and would require larger companies around the world to do the same to make a difference.
Musk explained to DiCaprio that we can work together to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy.
If governments set rules that are conducive to sustainable energy, we can achieve our goals very quickly.
In January, Tesla began a record-breaking mass production of batteries for its cars and energy products.
The plant, which will become the world's largest building upon completion, is a key part of Elon Musk's vision to transform the energy industry.
The plant will initially produce a high-performance cylindrical "2170 cell" designed and manufactured jointly by Tesla and Panasonic ".
Battery production tests began in December, and earlier this year, batteries used in Tesla's Powerwall 2 and Powerpack 2 energy products began production.
Tesla's highly anticipated Model 3 battery will be launched in the second quarter, and Gigafactory will produce 35 GWh/year lithium by 2018-
Tesla revealed that the output of ion batteries is almost the same as the total output of other batteries in the world.
