"Tesla's mission is to accelerate the world to sustainable energy development. For the world, it is important to realize this mission sooner or later and the scale is the original intention of establishing a super battery factory." Musk unveiled the conference at the Super Battery Factory. Said.
Musk, who is trying to build a car, has been trying his brain out for the energy crisis. However, the super battery plant can build enough stable battery packs for electric vehicles. On a global scale, it is changing people's concept of carbon emission products. "In fact, it is really changing the world."
Super factory must be huge because the world is so big
The Super Battery Plant is located in the desert of Nevada, and the entire project has now been completed by 14%. Upon completion, it will reach 6 million square feet. Musk stated at the press conference that they are planning to double the battery output. To meet the needs of millions of electric vehicles.
Musk said that they expect the factory to achieve an annual output of 50 million kilowatt-hours within two years (in 2014, the total output of lithium batteries in the world was 30 million kilowatt hours). In other words, the output of this super battery plant will exceed the total output of all the other factories in the world.
When the super battery plant is completed in 2020, it will meet the demand of 1.5 million vehicles, and will also provide battery packs for energy storage equipment.
"People have to afford the price of a car, or people won't buy it." In order to achieve this, Musk stated that there is a need for constant technological advancement and the introduction of improved versions. “ The construction of the plant will allow the entire battery production process to be concentrated in one place, thereby reducing the cost of product transportation. Lithium batteries, after more than 10 years of use, can continue to be used after recycling, without any transportation costs. The cost has been reduced, thus driving down the price of the vehicle. " Musk said, "To do what everybody can afford is an electric car. This is something the Super Battery Factory wants to be able to do."
Refactor the design process to build the factory as a product
Most people think that the design factory is very boring, like taking pictures or viewing the project directory. For the super battery factory, this is a misconception. You need to think of it as a product, a huge machine that builds machines. For it, the design of the factory requires even more technological innovation and engineering investment than the product itself.
“We have a team of the best engineers who are talented. They see the factory as their own, and they will arrange the production line more rationally. This is the key to our ability to reduce costs even if we provide such huge production capacity.†Musk stressed, Super factory is not a repetitive machine.
“We redesigned the whole process of battery manufacturing.†Musk was very excited to mention the design framework. “How to emphasize the significance of this architecture is not too much, because in all places, people think that the role of the factory is to assemble the machine, assembly line. Day after day, the same product is produced. Most of the parts are imported directly from the catalog or obtained from the company, other factories put the equipment randomly, and the super battery factory is not. Over time, it will become more and more. Like a robotic assembly line, this is a highly compressed factory density. Imagine how we can improve the performance of your cell phone and computer, not by building a computer that is as large as a table, but by increasing the frequency and density of the transistors. The principle of factory design is the same. We give it the care it lacks."
Sharing a fleet plan to make your car make money for you
When you see a car, it is very likely that it is in a parking lot, which means it is not used. Musk said that through the unmanned upgrade, Tesla may become an Uber in the future, and owners can increase their income by “sharing†their own vehicles. And it is up to you to decide who should use your Tesla car: Five-star owners or home users. “When you don’t use a car, you can open the Tesla app on your mobile, opt in or out of the “shared fleet†and choose who can use it. Whenever you want to retract your car, you just have to open the app again When the program is clicked, it will automatically return to your side.†This way can maximize the effectiveness of the car and reduce the cost of keeping a car. At the same time, it is entirely up to you to decide when to use the car.
"In the future, Tesla using autonomous driving technology will also help you capture the Pokémon Elves. This is certain," said Musk, laughing at the audience's questions.
Previously, Musk's acquisition of solarcity, some media speculated that Tesla was not satisfied with being a car company. The birth of the super battery plant once again demonstrated to the world the ambition of Musk to change the world.
