Tesla is betting on Silicon Anodes

"Tesla is teasing some sort of nanotechnology in a new Battery Day announcement ahead of the presentation next month."

"Currently, Amprius is studying its options: it may produce anodes or it could go into the battery business."

So we have Sila needing HPQ silicon nano powders and Amprius needing HPQ silicon nano wires... can we just build 2 reactors from the start? Crazy how all these articles never mention the cost of these high value silicon products HPQ Nano Inc. produces...
