Here we go again the German Nature Environmentalists have stopped the Tesla construction again - Dave
“Tesla has been ordered again to suspend preparations for a car factory in Germany after a successful court injunction by environmentalists. The electric carmaker has been clearing forest land near the capital, Berlin, for its first European car and battery plant. But opponents argued this will endanger the habitats of lizards and snakes.”

Still, ecology or not, it's good to see that there's some life being breathed into the European economy after that disastrous last year! Between that and the new investor visa in Spain https://tranio.com/articles/golden-visa-in-spain/, I hope we won't have to wait too much to see a return to pre-COVID levels of growth.

It now appears that this Tesla Project is becoming Bigger with the Planned Battery Cell Plant and also in the Brandenburg Area of Berlin there is now the US Co. Microvast. This Area could soon be a Battery Boom Area - Dave
“Elon Musk surprised the automotive establishment when he selected a small town in eastern Germany for Tesla Inc.’s first European car factory. The politician who drew him there now wants to turn the region into a major electric-vehicle supply hub. The battery-cell production facility Tesla plans to add at the electric-vehicle plant it’s building in Gruenheide could be online in roughly two years, Joerg Steinbach, Economy Minister has stated.”

What is interesting is that another US Co. Microvast is now in Ludwigsfelde which is about 20 Kms from us and in the same area as our Nissan Dealer. Microvast opens European HQ near Berlin | Automotive Industry News | just-auto : https://www.just-auto.com/news/microvas ... 99971.aspx

It has been said that the Construction Guys are lightly to move on soon. This place has just shot up so quickly using apparently all sorts of Labour. Mr.Musk has not been having it easy with “some” of the Germans regarding the Building and the Local Water, but it goes on as I cannot see him pulling out now. The Battery Factory is coming and now he has been to the UK for proposed talks there. If interested here are a couple of articles with the German Pros & Cons, basically Mr.Musk is a very “Pushy” Businessman - Dave

The vehicles will be exported from Tesla's factory in Shanghai. The first vehicles will be handed over to customers in Germany in August, the German news agency dpa reported, citing an official Tesla communication.”The Gigafactory :

Looks like a Big Open Day today for Mr.Musk in Berlin - Dave
“Thousands of people are expected to head to Tesla's new factory on the outskirts of Berlin on Saturday as the electric carmaker's chief executive Elon Musk hosts a "county fair." Hundreds of people had reached the site by midday, eager to explore Tesla's first European factory in Gruenheide. Musk confirmed he planned to attend the event. Other attractions included a Ferris wheel, food trucks and DJs.”
