Tesla Investor Day 2023: Here’s what’s in Elon Musk’s Master Plan 3

It’s Tesla Investor Day and that means it’s time to talk about Elon Musk’s Master Plan 3.

After teasing it for a while, the plan is being unveiled at Tesla’s Investor Day event. At the event, Musk unveiled Master Plan 3, which focuses on how to turn Earth (yes, the entire planet), into a completely sustainable planet in terms of power generation and usage. It’s a bold plan, perhaps the boldest, but that’s what Tesla is looking at when it comes to a macro level.

Switch all of Earth to sustainable energy

In order to accomplish the switch to sustainable energy for the entire planet, the company says that it will take the following key things to occur:

• Repower the existing grid with renewable energy like solar and wind
• Switch completely to electric vehicles for both consumers and businesses
• Switch to heat pumps in homes, businesses, and industry
• Electrify high temp heat delivery and hydrogen
• Sustainably power both airplanes and boats

The company says that the plan is “entirely feasible” and that the entire world could technically switch to sustainable energy by 2050. The company claims that building all of the wind farms, solar farms, and other ways to generate all of this renewable energy would only take up 0.2% of the world’s land mass and that making the switch would result in less mineral extraction when compared to the fossil fuel industry.

It also says that, based on current technology, the resources exist to make such a switch. The cost to do all of this is estimated to be around $10 trillion. Elon Musk said that not only investors in Tesla, but “investors in Earth,” should contribute to making this happen.

A next-generation car assembly process

Tesla also announced that it is changing the way that it assembles its vehicles. While the current process involves a bunch of parts coming together, being pulled apart, and then bringing them back together again. Its new “unboxed process” will only need to handle the assembly of the car one time, instead of multiple times. The company says that this new process will not be used for its current generation vehicles like the Model 3, Model S, and Model Y, but for a “next-gen” car.

The presenters said that they will be talking about this mysterious car “at a later date.” The company also reiterated that the Cybertruck will be launching in 2023, echoing promises that Elon Musk made during Tesla’s last earnings call.
