>that by using the best available manufacturing techniques, they can double the world's battery production on 260,000 hours/week of labor.

Mostly true, but to get a complete figure you might also factor in labor hours from upstream vendors which supply parts and/or raw materials. Increased battery production also means increased raw material extraction/processing/transportation.

Still impressive though. There's probably less than 50k workers involved in producing the world's battery supply.
