The power grid that supplies energy to the Tesla plant near Berlin has come under attack by environmental activists.
The German Federal Prosecutor’s Office has launched an investigation into the burning of a power line at a Tesla plant near Berlin. This was reported by Tagesschau on Friday, March 8th.
The incident is being investigated as sabotage, arson and economic disruption. In addition, the arsonists face charges of membership in a terrorist group.
We remind you that on March 5, unknown persons set fire to the power line supplying the Tesla plant near Berlin. As a result, production is de-energized. Supply has not yet been restored. Tesla estimates the cost of the downtime to be in the millions of dollars.
The far-left initiative Vulkangruppe claimed responsibility for the incident, saying it intended to shut down the Tesla plant. This organization is also suspected of being involved in setting fire to a power line at the plant’s construction site in 2021.
Let’s recall that on March 6, Tesla’s capitalization fell by 2.3% to $553 billion, which is why the company dropped to 11th place on the list of the most valuable companies in the United States.
