The Tesla Gigafactory: Powering the Renewable Future

Elon Musk has been in the business of changing the world for many years now. Since his founding project, PayPal, the internet banking system that changed world currency transaction forever, he has built several successful enterprises with the goal of creating a cleaner, sustainable Earth. Solar City, his lease-to-own self-pay solar energy solution for home owners, and Tesla Motors, his incredible all-electric powered, exotic car company, have completely changed the face of what an eco-economic industry looks like.

This latest project Musk is calling "The Gigafactory" is seeking to eliminate the worry for necessary battery power for the foreseeable future for Tesla Motors. Because of the all-electric, high-power design of the Tesla cars, efficient, high-powered batteries are going to be essential and in high-demand. However, in an effort to satisfy that demand, Tesla is creating a self-sufficient super-factory that will produce these highly efficient, powerful batteries at extremely low-cost using only renewable, solar energy.
