$12.2 trillion will be invested in global power generation in the next 35 years and the Tesla Gigafactory is just the beginning

According to a Bloomberg report earlier this year, $12.2 trillion will be invested in global power generation in the next 25 years, with renewables counting for 2/3s of the investment. Tesla (NYSE: TSLA), as witnessed by its multi-billion dollar gigafactory, is the first to strike.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s goal is to be building 500,000 electric-vehicles (EV) by 2020. With this planned production rate in the latter half of the decade, Tesla alone will require today’s entire worldwide production of lithium-ion batteries.

There are two primary raw materials necessary to build lithium-ion batteries; lithium and graphite. In fact, it is estimated that 15 times more graphite than lithium is required in a lithium-ion battery.
