[Netease Smart News May 11 news] In October last year, Tesla announced a new project - solar roof. Unlike traditional solar panels on the roof, if all goes well, these solar panels will completely replace your roof. They look as beautiful as other roofs, and may be a little too shiny.
The first question that appears in everyone's mind seems to be the same: cool! But how much does this cost? This is the point.
Tesla gives rough estimates and comparisons, but there is no universal answer for all families. Different houses have different energy needs; different buildings have different roofs and different problems (chimneys, trees, etc.) Different states have different tax benefits.
Bookings will be open this afternoon. You need to pay a $1,000 deposit. If you change your mind before signing the final contract, you can return the money. Of course, Tesla can't count on people booking in advance without knowing how much they will eventually pay, so they have built a cost calculator to provide quotes for your house. Enter your address and it will spit out a custom estimate.
Tesla uses Google Project Sunroof project, using 3D drawing technology to roughly calculate the user's roof area (square feet), and its use of solar energy. This gives the user a rough estimate of the cost of the roof (including materials, costs of installing and removing the old roof), and they will consider the cost of the Powerwall battery. They will then give a final cost of 30 years based on the local tax credit and based on the electricity savings.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk also has some understanding of how the order process works: Once you place an order and line up on the waiting list, they will send an engineer to accurately calculate the cost of installing the roof. For example, how large is the base area and how many square meters of solar panels can be installed?
The last point is very interesting: not all roofs are solar tiles. For example, if you don't have much light on your roof, then the corresponding area will be filled with ordinary magnets, but the appearance looks the same, Musk pointed out.
It is reported that glass solar panels will begin production this year, and Tuscan and Slate panels will not be used for roofing until 2018. Musk said on Twitter that it will take "about six months". You can find the calculator and booking page via the link.
