The start of the Brandenburg Tesla plant next Tuesday is saved. The water association WSE will not terminate the supply contract with the car manufacturer as threatened.

Wednesday afternoon, WSE boss André Bähler and the head of water at the Brandenburg Environment Ministry, Anke Herrmann, agreed at the crisis talks in the Potsdam State Chancellery: In the event of a water shortage, the supplier may pump 1.3 million cubic meters more than previously tolerated.

“The WSE is withdrawing the decision to terminate the contract today,” said the chairman of the association meeting, Henryk Pilz (56, CDU) after the crisis talks on the BZ association head Bähler had threatened to stop the water for Tesla if the ministry did not higher flow rates allowed.
