Tesla Gigafactory Progress at the Tahoe Reno Industrial Park - January 2015.


  
  Elon Musk is set to deliver on his grand vision for Tesla Gigafactory. Resent oil crash has just provided us with another small break to implement the Lithium technology for electric cars on the mass scale on time. 

Fortune: How Nevada Won The Tesla Gigafactory.



We have a lot of people trying to bring Elon Musk's  image down these days and question his remarkable success. My advice will be - just try to change the world yourself. He has already done it. Whatever happens next will only define the speed of this rEvolution. He has shown the way and that the Lithium Technology is here. The most important words in the video paraphrased: "This place could be in China, but it is here in Nevada." Just look at this place and how fast Elon Musk moves with Gigafactory! This could be the real American Renaissance: Solar and Electric Cars. Shale Oil has given us all the opportunity to catch some time - today's OPEC war will take this opportunity very quickly away.

 Elon Musk talks about the Gigafactory and incredible numbers behind his vision: "Everything will be fully electric, except for Rockets!" In China his vision can be the only way forward with personal mobility due to the terrible level of air pollution. Watch the video."

“Ganfeng has an army of lithium-focused geologists who looked at projects in every corner of the planet,” stated ILC president Kirill Klip in an exclusive interview, “but they chose ILC to do business with. This is a big de-risking factor for our current and future shareholders. The Chinese do their homework. They believe in the geology of our assets, our management and our development strategy.” Read more.

Elon Musk Top Disruptor 50 On Tesla Open Source for Electric Cars, SpaceX and Solar City.



  Our rEvolutionary-In-Chief Elon Musk talks about the future which is happening today. He is my personal inspiration for our International Lithium story. Below you can get a sense about the potential for Lithium Technology. We are talking here not only about the mass market for Electric Cars, but Secondary Energy Storage based on Lithium Batteries for Solar and Wind Energy integration into the Smart Grid.
  


  Why do we all have to bother? Latest news from Iraq will guide you into the right direction: There Is No Cheap Oil Left:

  Dreams about Electric Cars are coming true and now International Lithium has not only capable management, projects all across the globe and strategic partner from China in the Vertically Integrated Lithium Battery Business, but the capital to develop our lithium projects in Ireland and Argentina.

Strategic Partner, Ganfeng Lithium, Announces Initial Budget for Joint Ventures with International Lithium.


Jun 18, 2014 (ACCESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Vancouver, BC / ACCESSWIRE / June 18, 2014 / International Lithium Corp. (the "Company" or "ILC") is pleased to announce that the Board of Directors of Ganfeng Lithium Co., Ltd. ("Ganfeng Lithium" or "GFL") approved a 2014 annual mining exploration budget for wholly owned subsidiary GFL International Co., Ltd. for fifteen (15) million yuan (approximately CAN $2,645,000). The funds were approved at a board meeting held on June 5, 2014 and will account for expenditures on the Blackstairs and Mariana projects collectively.

"We are encouraged by Ganfeng Lithium's approval of this exploration budget. These projects are a potential source of raw materials for GFL's manufacturing operations and we are officially making headway moving them along in accordance with our initial vertical integration model." Kirill Klip, President, International Lithium Corp. Read More."

Electric rEvolution: Elon Musk Goes Open Source - Opens Tesla's Electric Cars Patents To All.


  "Who can tell us all better about his real intentions than the Leader-in-chief of our rEvolution? Now we have our Electric Car Manifesto and we all are invited to participate, do your part - share it, please: Read more."

All Our Patent Are Belong To You 
 
Yesterday, there was a wall of Tesla patents in the lobby of our Palo Alto headquarters. That is no longer the case. They have been removed, in the spirit of the open source movement, for the advancement of electric vehicle technology. 
Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology. 
When I started out with my first company, Zip2, I thought patents were a good thing and worked hard to obtain them. And maybe they were good long ago, but too often these days they serve merely to stifle progress, entrench the positions of giant corporations and enrich those in the legal profession, rather than the actual inventors. After Zip2, when I realized that receiving a patent really just meant that you bought a lottery ticket to a lawsuit, I avoided them whenever possible. 
At Tesla, however, we felt compelled to create patents out of concern that the big car companies would copy our technology and then use their massive manufacturing, sales and marketing power to overwhelm Tesla. We couldn’t have been more wrong. The unfortunate reality is the opposite: electric car programs (or programs for any vehicle that doesn’t burn hydrocarbons) at the major manufacturers are small to non-existent, constituting an average of far less than 1% of their total vehicle sales. 
At best, the large automakers are producing electric cars with limited range in limited volume. Some produce no zero emission cars at all. 
Given that annual new vehicle production is approaching 100 million per year and the global fleet is approximately 2 billion cars, it is impossible for Tesla to build electric cars fast enough to address the carbon crisis. By the same token, it means the market is enormous. Our true competition is not the small trickle of non-Tesla electric cars being produced, but rather the enormous flood of gasoline cars pouring out of the world’s factories every day. 
We believe that Tesla, other companies making electric cars, and the world would all benefit from a common, rapidly-evolving technology platform. 
Technology leadership is not defined by patents, which history has repeatedly shown to be small protection indeed against a determined competitor, but rather by the ability of a company to attract and motivate the world’s most talented engineers. We believe that applying the open source philosophy to our patents will strengthen rather than diminish Tesla’s position in this regard. Elon Musk."
