Tesla: "When one says go in the US" - Tesla expansion in Grünheide still open

Tesla's expansion plans for its Grünheide Gigafactory are on hold pending a decision in the US. According to plant manager André Thierig, preparations are underway, including construction of a new road and future highway connection, as well as obtaining necessary permits and an additional power connection. However, Thierig stated that no decision on the expansion has been made yet.

The expansion plans were previously linked to the outcome of the works council election in March by CEO Elon Musk, who warned against "external organizations" influencing the company's decisions.
