Is Tesla Close To Approving A Canada Gigafactory?
Speculation mounts as Tesla is believed to be looking at Ontario for its next gigafactory site.
- Tesla is believed to be looking at sites in the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec for a new gigafactory.
- The EV maker officially opened two new plants this year—in Berlin and Texas—but has struggled to bring both up to their optimal production capacity.
- Canada is believed to be a finalist for the next gigafactory location due to proximity of crucial raw materials and their processors.
The CEO had hinted in recent months that the search for a new plant location in North America was under way, with Tesla execs having visited a number of mining sites in recent months. The locations of the mining sites, and their relative proximity to Canada's auto production hubs in Ontario, has sparked speculation that Tesla could be planning to build a new gigafactory in Ontario or Quebec.
A gigafactory in Canada would bring the automaker's number of plants up to seven, with Canada having the distinct advantage of nearby raw materials that could be transported with relative ease by rail to refining plants and other sites in the country's auto industry hub, which hosts a number of suppliers. This potentially makes Ontario and Quebec natural leaders, in the estimation of a number of industry observers, for Tesla's next plant in North America, offering a much shorter supply chain than in other sites outside the US like Berlin and Shanghai.
