Tesla's Gigafactory covers over 500,000 square meters, located in Nevada. This factory is described by Tesla as a place to change the position of the world by means of sustainable transport.
The Gigafactory is used to produce Tesla electric vehicle batteries. Tesla produces these batteries with the motto of saving, producing, reducing waste, and simplifying all tasks under one roof.

Tesla's Gigafactory is expected to begin battery production in 2017, coinciding with the time when the Model 3 will roll, by 2020 the plant will reach its maximum capacity.
But today, thanks to a quadrocopter unmanned aircraft, we were able to see this $ 5 billion Gigafactory overall.
Tesla's first automobile battery factory Gigafactory, located on the outskirts of Sparks, Nevada.
Tesla spent about $ 4.5 million to build the first phase of this factory.
The construction works on the roof of this factory were almost completed.Solar panels will be installed later, the roof's white color will help the plant cool, optimizing the working efficiency of solar panels.
Many other areas of the plant are still under construction, and Tesla is probably also preparing to expand this plant.
This side is another extension of the Gigafactory factory, which is still under construction.
Tesla also spent millions of dollars to build a "city" around the factory, Tesla also spent hundreds of thousands of dollars building a command center for fire protection and protection areas.
Tesla said that only the Gigafactory plant's foundation has cost about $ 16 million.
Last year, Tesla spent $ 13 million on the plant's steel and concrete floor system.
The plant's power infrastructure also cost Tesla $ 300,000.
When Tesla has completed the exterior of the factory, they will start embarking on the design of the interior space, which will also cost them $ 10 million.
