NEW MEXICO REMAINS ONE OF FOUR STATES BEING CONSIDERED FOR A HUGE TESLA MOTORS BATTERY PLANT. IF OUR STATE IS SELECTED, ALBUQUERQUE CITY COUNCILOR KEN SANCHEZ SAYS A LOCATION ON THE CITY'S WEST SIDE WOULD BE PERFECT.
IT'S THE ATRISCO LAND GRANT PROPERTY ENCOMPASSING ABOUT 50-THOUSAND ACRES. SANCHEZ SAYS THE ADJACENT PROPERTY IS NEXT TO I-40, WHICH IS ONE OF THE NATION'S BUSIEST TRUCK CARGO CORRIDORS. HE THINKS IT WOULD BE AN ASSET FOR TESLA.
TESLA IS ALSO CONSIDERING TEXAS, ARIZONA AND NEVADA FOR ITS MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR BATTERY FACTORY.
