The proposed operation would reportedly span nearly the entire solar manufacturing process.

What if Tesla's next major energy move was not a vehicle at all, but a sprawling solar manufacturing campus outside Houston?

A new report suggests that may be exactly what is taking shape in Brookshire, Texas.

According to Electrek, Tesla is developing a major solar manufacturing operation at its Brookshire site, alongside the Megapack battery factory already under construction there. The property is located in Empire West Business Park, about 35 miles west of Houston.

The proposed operation would reportedly span nearly the entire solar manufacturing process — from ingot growth and wafer slicing to photovoltaic cell production and finished panel assembly — creating a vertically integrated facility supported by cleanroom-grade manufacturing space and more than $250 million in construction spending.
