    The Gigafactory will exceed the output of all current factories worldwide.
    .
    It will be the largest single industrial building on earth.
    .
    It will be entirely self-contained by wind power and solar roof technology.
    .
    All Tesla batteries will be made here and all of them will come back here, too.
    .
    The materials in the batteries are entirely recyclable indefinitely.
    .
    This will be the recycle center for 15 - 20 year-old batteries.
    .

    Are the Gigafactory batteries going to just be for cars?
    .
    Well, they'll be for trucks and pickups, too.
    .
    And they'll also be for houses -- like solar powered houses...
