Tesla: „Wenn in den USA einer Go sagt“ – Tesla-Ausbau in Grünheide weiter offen
Elon Musk machte den Ausbau der Gigafabrik vom Einfluss der IG Metall abhängig. Entschieden ist nichts. Derweil können Mitarbeiter bis zu 10.000 Euro für Anwesenheit gewinnen.
Grünheide's Tesla factory expansion remains contingent upon a decision made in the United States, stated plant manager André Thierig during a workplace assembly on Thursday. He likened the situation to the starting line of a 100-meter sprint, saying, "When the USA says 'Go', we can take off." Preparations for the expansion are ongoing.
North of the factory, a new highway and an autobahn connection are being constructed in a few years' time. Moreover, Tesla requires an additional power supply for the expansion. Thierig also mentioned that they are already working on the necessary permits. "But as of now, a decision on the factory expansion has not been made." Before the works council election in March, CEO Elon Musk had linked the expansion to the influence of IG Metall, warning in a February video interview of "external organizations" that would push Tesla in the wrong direction. He added, "We will not shut down the factory, but realistically, we will not expand it either."
