SMM7, March 14: Tesla appears to be interested in optimizing its production process at Gigafactory in Berlin and obtaining environmental permission from the electric car manufacturer, which will employ 10500 workers for the soon-to-be-built plant.

It is reported that with so many employees, Tesla hopes to produce as many as 500000 cars a year at the site. The plant is expected to produce Tesla's latest ModelY for the European market. At present, Tesla's final environmental permit is still under formal approval, but the company has begun to build large-scale facilities.

It is understood that Gigafactory 1 was built in Storey County, Nevada (called Giga Nevada), Gigafactory 2) in Buffalo, New York (now known as Giga New York), Gigafactory 3 in Shanghai, China (known as Giga Shanghai), Berlin, Germany, under construction of Gigafactory 4.

【Flash | InP-Integrated AI Optical Engines Enter Volume Shipments】
NewPhotonics and Tower Semiconductor announced high-volume shipments of laser-integrated optical engines for AI infrastructure. The 800G and 1.6T PICs use Tower’s PH18DA silicon-photonics platform with heterogeneously integrated InP components, enabling lasers, SOAs, modulators and photodetectors on one chip. Volume shipments of 6.4T NPO chipsets are planned for H1 2027. SMM believes this signals that AI optical-interconnect demand is translating into InP device demand, supporting high-purity indium consumption. However, shipment volumes and InP intensity were not disclosed, so the near-term indium uplift cannot yet be quantified.
