    “Giga factory” sounds so stupid. It’s just a factory.

      As with many insufferable elements of modern society, you can blame Elon for this one too.

      It references a single factory that can produce over a gigawatt of energy capacity annually.

      When Tesla announced the first gigafactory around 2013, the plan was for the factory to produce more lithium batteries annually than the entire planet did at the time.
