Musk: SpaceX and Tesla are each building 100 gigawatts of solar production capacity per year as quickly as possible, but natural gas will still be needed to supplement and launch solar power generation for the next few years. The limiting factor in gas turbine production is the casting of blades and static blades. By carrying out in-house casting at SpaceX, we can advance the launch of gas turbines by up to 18 months, which will be a major change.
