SpaceX plans to build its own power facility for TeraFab, a large-scale semiconductor manufacturing plant developed with Tesla in Texas, USA. Riley Trettel, who is responsible for SpaceX's energy and data center development business, said on Wednesday in Grimes County, Texas: “We will be self-sufficient, we will build gas power plants, and we will also build very large battery arrays to store energy.” These remarks provided new details on plans for new factories being promoted by Musk's two largest companies. The surge in electricity demand from data centers and new plants is driving demand for new natural gas power plants, and Musk has long preferred a vertical integration model. This is not the first time that Musk and its companies have participated in the Texas energy market. Tesla produces large-scale grid-grade battery energy storage equipment called Megapack and owns a Megapack plant in western Houston.
