Video: Tesla Motors announcement that it will build factory in Nevada
Here's the video of Thursday's press conference in Carson City announcing Tesla's plans to build a gigafactory in Storey County.
Tesla has been in negotiation for months with four other states including California, Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico. CEO Elon Musk announced in spring that two sites would start to be constructed before a final winner was declared.
In July, Tesla broke ground at the Reno Tahoe Industrial Center, but the company did not publicly commit to building in Nevada. The Silver State ultimately won the battle for the major economic development.
