Tesla Motors In Power Storage Market

Tesla Motors has entered the energy storage market and expects to dominate it through its experience.

Tesla Motors has recently introduced itself in the power storage market with a belief to earn revenues from supplying batteries to homes and business, as reported by Tesla News. This report indicates that the company intends to extend its target market.

Experts presented the view that the organization would face competition for both users and state subsidies. Chief Executive, Elon Musk, has stated that its storage division is dominating its competitors in the field of solar power storage systems, which advocates his faith in its potential to succeed.

A number of analysts believe that the power storing industry is in its early stages, as power-generating facilities, homeowners, and businesses partly attracted by state benefits, purchase systems. Tesla news today highlighted that energy storing setups would support green power systems, which otherwise would suffer from weather conditions. This statement indicates that the new systems would promote environmental-friendly uses of energy, as their durability would improve.

Market sources revealed that the price of company’s storing device is in line with its rivals and it would successfully compete with its competitors. A number of other high-tech products manufacturers, such as Saft Groupe SA, LG Chem Ltd., and Samsung SDI Co. Ltd., are already working in the energy storing market.

Tesla Motors news stated that the manufacturer is not new to the power storing industry, as it has been supplying small quantities of batteries for years. This statement tells us about the firm's ability to satisfy the storage market. Experts presented the view that its experience would ensure its progress in the new modern market. Four years ago, Tesla and its partner, SolarCity, were nearly alone in demanding incentives for the development of on-site storage systems in the American state of California. Now, however, a number of other organizations, such as Stem, Green Charge Networks, and CODA Energy, have followed the initiative. The entrance of so many rivals has affected the demand and supply balance for rapidly increasing power storage devices.

The stakeholders in the energy storage sector are about to face a tough time, as they might not get subsidies. California’s self-generation program would expire after four years, which is expected to threaten the manufacturers of energy storage devices, as the cancellation of funding would increase their costs.

It is probable that the energy storing devices would be quite difficult to afford, as their installation charges are very high. Industry experts believe that the industry has the potential to grow if organizations take steps to reduce costs and extend their device production capacity. Now it is yet to be seen that to what extent the electric vehicle maker is able to succeed in the field of energy storage.

The factory construction cost of Tesla Motors increases

Tesla Motors has found out that its factory construction cost has increased in Nevada, while constructing the largest lithium ion battery factory in the world.

The American electric automobile manufacturer, Tesla Motors, has received a bad news, as its financial cost of constructing the largest ion battery-manufacturing factory has increased. Tesla news reported that the building cost of the battery plant in Nevada has crossed $62,000,000. The building project encompasses the establishment of the initial steel structure of the plant. The installation of the structure began last December, and the company had planned to finish the installation by June.

Experts hold the view that the process would end up in September. The process of establishing a 1,500,000-gallon water tank started in late March, for which Farr Construction Corp has been held responsible. Apart from that, a new concrete work has to be done on the main substation of the site by Phoneix-based Suntec Concrete.

Tesla motors news affirms that the process of rating the sites at the compound of the factory has started by Granite construction. The price of groundwork varies from site to site. The company has estimated a cost of $6 per cubic yard for the areas within the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center. Construction experts have stated that the cost of grading the three sites would be at least $6,000,000.The estimated plant-building cost at the factory through January was $53,100,000. This information is sufficient to explain that the construction cost has increased quite rapidly.

Tesla news today informed that the Japanese electronics company, Panasonic, is also participating in the construction project. Experts believe that the size of the factory would exceed the size of all the lithium–ion battery plants. Industry sources have highlighted that both organizations would require $5,000,000,000 to invest in this project. This increase in the cost was expected. The endeavors mark the future prospects of the company.

A number of labor unions had posted information regarding the delay of the construction project. The Chief Executive Officer of Tesla Motors, Elon Musk, had rejected the posts of the union. Mr. Musk stated that the construction of the factory had not been slowed down. The management of the vehicle manufacturer wants to ensure that the project finishes on time. The business believes that its huge investment would yield very good results.

Market sources revealed that the rapid construction of the plant had contributed to the recovery of the construction industry of Nevada, which suffered from a recession in the past. This development would play an important role in improving the living standards of the construction workers in terms of employment opportunities. It is expected that those opportunities would play a significant role in improving the economy of the American state. Now it is yet to be seen that to what extent the construction speed is able to contribute in benefitting Tesla and its customers.
