- Tesla Inc on Wednesday said its solar factory in Buffalo, New York, would become the “manufacturing home” for its electric vehicle Supercharger cabinets and other energy storage products as it seeks to meet employment targets tied to state subsidies.
The company disclosed the move in an annual report to New York state in which it said it had exceeded its jobs and investment commitments thus far. But the company must add hundreds more workers in New York to meet next year’s target. By this time next year, it must employ 1,460 workers in the state, including 500 at the factory, according to Empire State Development, the state’s economic development arm.
“We are pleased that Tesla is reporting that it has exceeded its job and investment commitments,” Pamm Lent, spokeswoman for Empire State Development, said in an emailed statement. “In the coming weeks, ESD will perform the necessary due diligence to verify the data provided by Tesla.”
