05:03 AM EDT, 03/12/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Tesla's (TSLA) plant outside Berlin has been reconnected to the electricity grid following a recent arson attack on the site's power supply that halted production, utility company E.dis said Monday.

"After this important step, the focus is on the extensive repair work that has already started on the actual site of damage," E.dis said.

Andre Thierig, the plant's head, said late Monday that "it will certainly take some time until we have fully resumed production," Reuters reported.
