Pretty sure the Gigafactory in NV has LG staff inside them making the Cells, or rather running the machines that makes the cells. While it is under one roof I think there are 2 businesses inside, one LG and 1 Telsa
- dylan604 4y agointeresting. was not aware they were 4-walling the set up to keep them separated to that extent. does that say anything about how LG feels about the relationship with Tesla, or anything about how LG feels about the ability of Tesla employees? Are the batteries coming out of the Gigafactory only for use by Tesla, or are they making LG branded batteries to be sold to LG customers? If they are selling LG products, then I could see why LG would have a much more vested interest in the factory. If they are only Tesla products via a licensing deal, why would they be as interested?
- phpisthebest 4y agoAccording to Wikipedia it is Panasonic not LG but Panasonic is making the batteries in the factory.Tesla owns the land and building, and leases parts of the building to several suppliers It is not uncommon for a manufacturer to have dedicated machines or entire factory just for one customer [1]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigafactory_Nevada https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigafactory_Nevada
