Where is Tesla's Hefei Factory Located?
1 Answers
Tesla has entered the Hefei market, settling in the Feidong Economic Development Zone (Hefei Shanghai Industrial Park), establishing a regional layout to cover Anhui. Reasons for choosing Hefei: Hefei has many strong semiconductor chip companies. Three major factories: First Gigafactory: Located in Nevada, USA, this is Tesla's first self-built Gigafactory, completed and put into production in June 2014. Second Gigafactory: Located in New York, USA, acquired in 2016 through the purchase of SolarCity, this factory mainly produces solar roofs, capable of producing 1,000 roof sets per week. Its role is to complement the use of Powerwall and Powerback. Third Gigafactory: Located in Shanghai, it is the fastest-built factory, officially put into production in early 2019. This factory is crucial for Tesla; during Tesla's most difficult times, Shanghai, China, extended a helping hand, enabling Tesla to get back on track quickly. Moreover, this project had the longest construction cycle, taking only 10 months, in stark contrast to the Gigafactory currently under construction in Germany.
