And SpaceX is partnering with Tesla to build the chipmaking facility that could be located in Grimes County. Terafab, as the project is called, would make chips for electric vehicles, humanoid robots and space-based data centers.

Elon Musk is expected to appear virtually at ASML's (ASML) annual technology conference on Thursday, where he is expected to discuss Terafab, his proposed semiconductor manufacturing venture aimed at supplying chips for Tesla (TSLA) and SpaceX.
The centrepiece of Tesla’s hardware push is the Terafab project in Austin, Texas. Announced in March 2026, the €25 billion semiconductor plant is a joint venture with SpaceX and Intel.
Dubbed “Terafab,” the proposed $20 to $25 billion project is a collaborative effort involving Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, and is designed to build specialized chips to power Musk’s interconnected technology portfolio.
All that before Terafab — the hundreds-of-billions chip adventure with Intel to go after TSMC — and AI data centers in space, where it’s cold and the sunlight is eternal, but much of the science has to be invented: the best professional analysis says 10 to 15 years at least, not the 3 to 5 talked about around this offering, against Elon’s outlined $29 trillion market opportunity.

Beyond satellites and cloud computing, SpaceX is also collaborating with Tesla and Intel to rapidly advance a project named "Terafab." The source did not disclose further details, but this move further demonstrates that SpaceX is building a ...
This is important because SpaceX can’t supply its own chips for the satellites. Why? Because SpaceX doesn’t make chips… yet. Musk has planned for this situation, however, with the construction of Terafab in Texas, where SpaceX and Tesla (TSLA) – with plenty of help from American chip giant Intel (INTC) – will make their own chips.

All the upgrades hinge on one core thesis: ASML’s monopoly on extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography systems ensures multiyear visibility, with BofA forecasting 2028 revenue of €58.9 billion, adjusted EPS of €59.54, and a gross margin of 56% — up from 52.6% projected for this year.

After absorbing Elon Musk’s AI startup xAI in a stock-based deal earlier this year, SpaceX spent a staggering $12.7 billion on AI infrastructure in 2025 alone. It is also partnering with Tesla on a chip-making project called ‘Terafab’ to build its own AI hardware.
Fox Business reported that Musk said Terafab will be two fabs in Austin, Texas, with one focused on Tesla chips and the other on chips for SpaceX’s space-based data centers. Fox Business also reported that Musk said the project is meant to meet demand for computing power that the companies cannot get from outside suppliers.
