'Tesla Speed:' Senior Exec Says Construction Of Company's New Shanghai Factory Dedicated To Energy Storage Products Is About 45% Complete
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) senior executive Grace Tao Lin said on Tuesday that the company has completed about 45% of the construction of its megafactory in Shanghai dedicated to building energy storage products.
特斯拉公司（NASDAQ:TSLA）的高级执行官陶林在周二表示，公司已完成了上海超级工厂45%的施工进度，该工厂专门生产能源储存产品。
What Happened: Tao Lin, who is Vice President of External Affairs at Tesla, also shared images of the upcoming factory, together with a concept image of the factory once complete.
陶林是特斯拉公司的副总裁兼对外事务负责人，她还分享了即将到来的工厂图片以及工厂完工后的概念图片。
The Tesla Shanghai megafactory is the company's first factory dedicated to the production of energy storage products outside the U.S. The company started official construction of the factory in May.
特斯拉上海超级工厂是该公司在美国以外专门生产能源储存产品的第一家工厂。该公司于五月正式开始工厂的建设。
Currently, Tesla has only one other factory dedicated to manufacturing batteries, located in Lathrop, California. The Lathrop facility has the capability of producing 40 GWh of energy storage products.
目前，特斯拉仅拥有另外一家专门制造电池的工厂，位于加利福尼亚州拉思罗普，该工厂能够生产40 GWh的能源储存产品。
Tesla said last month that the company is eyeing starting production at its new Shanghai factory in the first quarter of 2025.
特斯拉上个月表示，该公司计划在2025年第一季度开始在上海新工厂生产。
Tesla has another factory in China called Giga Shanghai which produces the company's popular Model 3 sedans and Model Y SUVs.
特斯拉在中国还有一家名为Giga Shanghai的工厂，专门生产该公司的热门车型Model 3轿车和Model Y SUV。
Why It Matters: Tesla reported a whopping 100% year-on-year jump in revenue from its energy generation and storage segment in the second quarter, even as revenue from the automotive segment dipped. The company's second-quarter revenue from the segment totaled $3 billion after it deployed 9.4 GWh of energy storage products.
重要性何在：特斯拉在第二季度从能源发电和储存业务实现营业收入惊人增长了100%，尽管汽车业务的营业收入下降。该公司第二季度该业务的营业收入达到30亿美元，部署了9.4 GWh的能源储存产品。
For the entirety of 2024, the company now expects the growth rate of revenue in its energy business to outpace the automotive business.
在2024年的全部时间内，该公司现在预计其能源业务的收入增长率将超过汽车业务。
During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting in June, Musk said that the company is on track to complete a "massive number of energy deployments."
在特斯拉年度股东大会上，马斯克表示，公司正朝着“大规模能源部署”的目标迈进。他说：“我们似乎正在跟踪能够实现能源存储部署和静止电池包的年同比增长200％至300％左右。因此，这是一个巨大的市场。现在的瓶颈是能够生产更多的Megapack和Powerwall。”
"We seem to be tracking to sort of a 200- to 300-percent year-over-year growth in energy storage deployment and stationary pack. So it's giant. And the limiting factor really is being able to build more Megapacks and build more Powerwalls (energy storage products)," he said.
他说：“我们似乎正在追踪能源储存部署和静止成组跃升200%到300%的年率增长。所以这是巨大的。而限制因素实际上是能够建造更多的Megapacks和Powerwalls（能源储存产品）。
