Over the past 20 years, Musk’s Solar City company has built a total of 4 GW of solar power capacity on Earth. That works out to 0.2 GW per year. He now projects that he will manufacture 1000 GW per year of solar power on the Moon and install and deploy them on AI satellites in space, which he shall also build. NB: Neither Musk nor anyone else has ever manufactured a single kilowatt of photovoltaic panels out of lunar simulant material in a vacuum chamber on Earth, let alone doing it on the Moon. NB: Lunar simulant has been available for such experiments for 50 years.

SpaceX is now shifting their priorities into building a Moon Base - doing so in less than a decade. This proposal from the ISU involves converting a Starship into a lunar base, Skylab-style. Starship’s ~1000m^ 3 of pressurized volume would result in a copious base.
