This is an amazing facility! I'd kill to have a factory like this in my hometown which has been suffering from job losses since an immigration-application facility was shuttered and relocated 6 years ago..
Yeah but what are you going to pay people that work there and how much money do you charge for the batteries you produce can you say scam and bought off the local government you can put money on that
The vast majority of people that work in such facilities are highly paid engineers. The production itself is all automated. And secondly capitalism operates with economies of scale. The more you scale up production of a given technology, the cheaper it gets to make. The cost of batteries has been steadily declining for the past decade, as more and more production has come online and the supply chains have matured. As well as due to the technological advancement that inevitably comes from scaling any new industry as well.

Thanks Joe and Kamala
What kind of batteries will it be making, Li-Ion, LFP? My guess is the older Lithium Ion technology.

I can’t put my finger on it, but I can feel like I’m paying for this already 😅
Is that by Kill Creek?
It's about 1 km west of Kill creek and directly adjacent to the old Sunflower ammunition plant.
The Kill Creek Observation Tower provides a nice, if distant, view of the factory.
I might have saw that on a satellite map
At 2:52.. no thank you
