Tesla boss Elon Musk reacts sharply to California’s announcement that the electric car pioneer has yet to start its only vehicle plant in the US. USA Due to the risks of the crown. Tesla will withdraw the California corporate headquarters with immediate effect.
The company will relocate its headquarters to Texas or Nevada, Musk tweeted Saturday. He also left the future of the Fremont plant in Alameda, California, with around 10,000 employees open. That will depend on how Tesla will continue to be managed there in the future.
The reason for this is the Alameda district’s refusal to reopen the San Francisco plant since last Friday. Musk had written to employees in an email that he should restrict operations to 30 percent of the normal workforce per shift. Alameda health officials said he should not be able to return to work because restrictions to curb the coronavirus were still in effect. California Governor Gavin Newsom said Thursday that he would allow factories to reopen in the state. However, Alameda had decided that the closure should continue until the end of May, with the exception of the essential companies.
A district official said Friday that health officials had had numerous conversations with Tesla and recommended that they monitor Covid 19 infection numbers for at least a week and discuss safe ways to resume production.
Musk had repeatedly criticized the blockade as a serious danger to American companies and as unconstitutional. He also announced Saturday that he would sue the Alameda district.
Tesla is also currently working on the construction of a plant in Grünheide, near Berlin, which will go into operation in 2021. Up to 12,000 employees are expected to manufacture up to 500,000 electric cars there each year.
