Thought:
Elon says that factory will provide packs for the stationary storage need that the solar industry has. He also says that Tesla will consume all the production capacity of the plant. These two statements seem incompatible until you also consider that he said that the factory will have recycling capability built in to it.
I'm guessing this means that Tesla will consume all newly produced battery packs for its cars. Spent packs will be returned to the factory for refurbishment and be repurposed as stationary storage for SolarCity.
