Fair enough, but my worry is if a building a plant 100x the size of the existing largest is a rational investment, considering that the area is ripe for innovation. The analogous case would be building a supercomputer of that scale 10-20 years ago.

- adventured 9y agoKeep in mind this is a PR piece, a "memorandum of understanding." They haven't actually legally agreed on anything, nothing has been paid or spent, no final contract is in place. Next after that, is that the construction will take place over decades. So it should reasonably be assumed they'll take advantage of some improvements along the way.
