Tesla’s additions to the community through jobs and investments
Carmaker Tesla wants to build a lithium hydroxide refining plant near the Texas Gulf to help in battery production by Robstown. Tesla is prepared to invest $365 million into the Nueces County facility through 2024 and ultimately hire 162 full-time workers by 2025.
Tesla said the facility would be the first of its kind and would “process raw ore material into a usable state for battery production.”
Tesla would then ship that battery-grade lithium to its other battery manufacturing plants to be used in electric vehicles. In September 2022 the Commissioner agreed to private rebates which are to be finalized in December in a hearing.
Approval for this investment will create numerous jobs and help put Robstown on the map.

Octa Homes specializes in building affordable and innovative housing that aids in tackling the affordable housing crisis in multiple areas.
