SILVER STATE CONFIDENTIAL 09/05/2014

TESLA DEAL IS A GREAT DEAL…FOR TESLA

The Sandoval administration is creating enough wind patting themselves on the back to qualify for typhoon status over the decision by electric car manufacturer Tesla Motors to build its battery gigafactory in Nevada.  But not everyone is a happy camper.

Nor should they be.

The decision was not exactly a surprise, even though Nevada was competing with three other states to land the facility.  Tesla was looking for relatively inexpensive land in a state where wages were comparatively lower than those paid in Palo Alto, California where Tesla’s manufacturing operation is located.
