Tesla Gigafactory 4’s water consumption estimates hint at Model Y and Model 3 output beyond 500k/year

Brandenburg Minister of the Economy Jörg Steinbach has given insight for the way the town of Brandenburg will supply water into Gigafactory 4.

According to a report from Lausitzer Rundschau Online, Steinbach says the first production phase will need water consumption which may be managed by regional companies within Stausberg, Germany. The specific amount of water is known by the Strausberg-Erkner water organization, the party responsible for disposal and supply in the Freienbrink Industrial Park in which Gigafactory 4 will likely be found. The first phase of car manufacturing at Gigafactory 4 will likely probably be accountable for constructing the Model Y crossover.

Gigafactory 4’s third and second generation stages will call for different sources of water because of the magnitude of the overall operation. This usually means the automobile manufacturer will need to make arrangements and investments for water providers, according to Steinbach. This stage will find the production of the Model 3 car .

Considering the water distribution quotes for the center, it appears that Gigafactory 4 has the potential to produce almost 250,000 cars in its initial stage, based on German press socket Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.  To put this into perspective, Tesla’s Gigafactory 3 in Shanghai, China, is forecast to construct 3,000 vehicles per week, or roughly around 156,000 vehicles a year.

In its second stage, the water distribution and disposal required by the Gigafactory 4 complex implies that the facility may create around 500,000 vehicles per year. This doesn’t seem to be the endgame for Tesla, however, since a third stage was hinted at in recent report. Depending on the total amount of water that’s anticipated to be used by the center in Phase 3, it appears that Gigafactory 4 might actually be capable of producing around 750,000 vehicles per year. That’s way over what Tesla’s Fremont mill is able to achieve during its setup.

A spokesperson stated that Tesla still has work to do with the German government’s organizations before any arrangements with water vendors are put to rock. Tesla reportedly reached an agreement with local government officials earlier this month to begin working on the initial construction stages of the European production plant in January 2020 after announcing the firm ’s decision to construct its next Gigafactory in Berlin at the Golden Steering Wheel awards every month.

The whole Gigafactory 4 complex will contain production, logistics, and design buildings is defined to be constructed around 300 hectares of property Tesla is intending to purchase shortly. Steinbach stated the job is on time and the elimination of trees is expected to be finished by mid-March. Tesla has stated they’ll re-plant three times the amount of trees in Brandenburg that the organization is required to reduce to make way for Gigafactory 4.
