At the mention of the name Tesla, the thing that pops in the minds of many is renewable energy, an electric vehicle, Hyperloop One, and SpaceX. In October 2016, Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, acquired SolarCity, the largest residential installer in the US, and entered the solar panels business. Due to inability to manufacture the solar panels at scale, Tesla solar cells were acquired from Panasonic through a partnership with the firm.
Tesla roof solar initial rollout began around April 2018 with a very few installations done as the public evaluated the tech’s self-proclaimed functionality. The company inaugurated its Solar Roof V3 in October 2019 promising it was the best solar roof available on the market.
This new solar roof is available at a pocket-friendly price and comes with a Class 3 hails rating and a twenty-five-year weatherization warranty. It also offers extended durability compared to the preceding solar roof versions.
But, what is Tesla Solar Roof anyway?
Tesla and SolarCity invented the solar roof that is similar to a house traditional roof with some photovoltaic shingles that can produce solar power. As such, you can delight in solar energy while maintaining your home’s artistry.
These solar roofs come into types of textured glass tile shingles, including active solar shingles (generate power) and inactive non-solar shingles.
