In a court case of DUH against the Federal Republic Germany (not Tesla), Tesla made interesting public statements to improve the permit process and suggest 10 improvements
"Germany's permitting framework for industrial and infrastructure projects, as well as .."
" ..for land use planning, is in direct contrast to the urgency needed to plan & implement such projects to combat climate change"
"Particularly irritating" to Tesla is that 16 months after the application was filed, there is still no timetable for issuing a final permit.
The "most glaring problem," Tesla said is that current procedures & laws treat projects that combat climate change and those that accelerate it the same
Tesla also criticizes the fact that most documents still have to be submitted in paper form. Digitization should be mandatory
Tesla also critizised the public hearing process
So far, when it comes to public participation, "some of the current provisions invite abuse," Tesla said. For example, large hearings reward "volume over substance."
Tesla continued in the court document
'If the company achieves its production target in Grünheide, around 15m tons of CO2 emissions could be avoided on Europe's roads each year'
Delaying approval by one month would "result in over one million tons of additional CO2 emissions"
The Tesla statement in the court case of DUH against Federal Germany, (Tesla is not a party off) continues
"If unnecessary delays were eliminated and the final approval decision was expedited, Germany could achieve its goals as set out in the Federal Climate Protection Act"
Tesla placed IMO a well balanced and justified criticism of Germanys lengthy, bureaucratic, and not with its climate goals aligned prioritizations of permit processes
I am convinced though that the permit for Giga Berlin will come in right in time
Tesla,
"Tesla's goal of starting production just 20 months after the siting decision is not ambitious. It is simply necessary. Any capital project that has the intention of stopping dangerous climate change should be implemented with similar or greater urgency & a tight timeline"
"You have to explain a lot more than with a car with an ICE"
"We also earn very well from after-sales service with diesel & gasoline engines. The oil changes alone. That all falls away for us"
"often the consulting effort exceeds any reasonable level"
He continued that although they get less commission for a sold BEV in the VW Agency model they don't have to buy the cars like an ICE which is a positive
Interesting bc Greenpeace published a report that dealers have bought together with VW companies in 2020 about every 4th ID.3
I wrote 2 articles about the issue of VW with its Dealers
Supply chains are broken in several places, he said, "the effects are clearly being felt through rescheduling"
"2021 remains challenging"
"Our ambitious goal is to grow significantly compared to the previous year"
10k vehicles can't be delivered
Audis CEO Duesmann continued in the interview about how long Audi will deliver ICE vehicles
"that will probably also be decided by our customers"
The press repeats since days the factual wrong reports that Audi will stop ICE production
Thats false
When the CEO was asked about the new EU CO2 norm
'The benefit for the climate would be very small, but the technical effort would be very large, "and we would then lack the money for the development of battery electric vehicles." '
ZDF Info & die gesamte Redation sollte sich schämen eine Bericht zu veröffentlichen der von ZDF manipulierte Tweets beinhaltet
"..at the beginning of '23 the quantities needed there for production will exceed what we can provide. The consequences are that there must be restrictions somewhere for the consumers"
Truth: This supplier is based on today's plan not in charge of the Phase 2 water supply in '23
Unions Head Hoffmann
"(..) he (Musk) on the one hand gladly takes public money but on the other hand does everything to employ the employees with low wages & bad working conditions"
Truth: The 🇩🇪 federal agency for work confirmed Tesla pays salaries over average in Brandenburg
