The German permit situation needs some clarification. It was Tesla which chose to commence site work at their own risk even though the public comment / objection period doesn’t end until March 05 with public discussion scheduled for March 18. Until such time no site preparation / building permits have or can be granted. Strictly speaking, the site preparation work which has taken place to date is unlawful. Tesla and its German lawyers certainly knew this but chose to “gamble”. BTW, German building / construction permit regulations are in line with those of the majority of Western European countries. Tesla and its fan club made the potential mistake of assuming that European timetables will match those just seen in China. That said, Germany should and likely will do everything to speed up this project but it can’t and shouldn’t be expected to simply throw out longstanding regulations.
