Tesla factory manager promotes deforestation in Grünheide. A citizen survey is currently taking place about Tesla's expansion plans.
The development plan for the expansion of the site has not yet been decided. In the first phase, 10,000 cars per week are planned for the factory's first phase. According to Tesla, the reason is a gap in the supply chain of components as a result of attacks on ships by the Yemeni Houthi militia in the Red Sea. The municipal council's decision is expected in the second quarter.
