Electricity supply restored to Tesla plant near Berlin after sabotage

The Tesla car plant close to Berlin is now back on the electricity grid, according to network operator Edis on Monday evening, a week after the power supply was cut by a left-wing extremist group.

Repair work was completed much earlier than initially expected, Edis said.

Tesla had expected production to remain at a standstill until the end of the week due to the power outage that occurred around a week ago, when previously unknown perpetrators set fire to an electricity pylon in a field.
