I grew up in a small country of 400K people, which in 2012 generated 2.2GWh of power. [1] This is very easy to calculate, since the country has only 2 power plants, and the electricity grid is completely isolated. [2]
I was astonished to realize that the battery output of 4 weeks from the gigafactory would power my native country entirely from batteries for a full year!
