We're super proud of this... Best battery cell team on the planet!

Increasing lithium refining capacity is critical to a sustainable energy economy—today, we're breaking ground on our in-house lithium refinery outside of Corpus Christi, TX.

This facility will also prioritize the elimination of a challenging refinery byproduct (sodium sulfate).

Instead, the byproduct is a mixture of sand & calcium carbonate—a viable additive in the production of construction materials, allowing us to make use of this waste stream.

In the future, we will also process other intermediate lithium feedstocks, including those from recycled batteries & manufacturing scrap.

I'm shaking reading about the discovery of Gabby Petito's body in Wyoming. While we're watching this case unfold, please take 5 seconds to read about Daniel Robinson, a geologist who went missing in the desert outside Buckeye three months ago. His father is still looking for him.

When you need to stabilize and balance an entire region's electrical grid, size matters: https://t.co/YUCyS1VC4W

ICYMI: We took our two-year-old Tesla Model 3 with RWD and 20k miles and put it up against a new BMW 3 Series, and came away with the realization that the Tesla drives better and handles better. Bonus: it's more fun, too. https://t.co/6lULygfbXI
