Bringing factories closer to customersOur six factories span three continents: Fremont Factory, Gigafactory Nevada, Gigafactory New York, Gigafactory Shanghai, Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg and Gigafactory Texas.
Covering roof space with solar panelsAs of 2021, we installed solar panels with a capacity of 21,405 KW, with the vast majority installed on Gigafactory Nevada, Gigafactory New York and our manufacturing facilities California.
Reducing the distance parts travelWe source heavy vehicle parts from locations nearby our Gigafactories to be closer to our vehicle manufacturing process.
Less Water UseOn average, we already use less water per vehicle than almost any ICE car manufacturer. Our goal is toachieve industry-leading low water usage per vehicle—even while accounting for in-house cellmanufacturing. Page 73
Real-World Fleet DataEnvironmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards for greenhouse gas reporting allow manufacturing companies to rely on a template which can drastically underreport vehicle use phase emissions, accounting for up to 90% of total automotive emissions. We use real-world mileage data from over two million cars on the road to estimate our greenhouse gas savings. Page 2
