Is the energy revolution finally underway?

That's what one might think after Elon Musk's shocking announcement.

Indeed, he revealed that Tesla's new solar roofs will cost cheaper than conventional roofs!

In other words, it will be cheaper to buy a solar roof that generates free electricity for you than to buy a regular roof.

Incredible, isn't it? This would mark an unprecedented turning point in the solar roof market. Explanations:

Elon Musk therefore said that Tesla will be able to produce a solar roof that will cost less than a conventional roof…

…And this WITHOUT taking into account the energy produced by photovoltaic tiles!

However, this is not at all what the company had anticipated.

If Elon Musk's announcement turns out to be correct, homeowners will no longer have no reason not to choose a solar roof.

A few months ago, Elon Musk declared that the cost of his solar roofs would be “cheaper than a conventional roof, taking into account the energy produced by the roof. "

In other words, solar roofs were to be cheaper only if one took into account the savings made by photovoltaic tiles.

But if, a solar roof costs less than a conventional roof BEFORE the energy savings, then it totally changes the situation!

Here is what Elon Musk said:

“It seems to me very likely that the initial cost of a solar roof is less important than that of a conventional roof, and this without even taking into account the electricity savings.

“In summary, here is our proposal to homeowners:

"How about a roof that is at the same time more elegant than traditional roofs, which lasts twice as long, which costs less and which, in addition, generates free electricity? "

Why would you choose anything else? "

And this is not over !

Indeed, Elon Musk adds that Telsa's predictions include labor costs but that they do not take into account state aid and subsidies for the installation of photovoltaic panels.

The CEO of Tesla believes that his offer is largely feasible because today the manufacture of conventional roofs is "incredibly inefficient" and in addition this market has not innovated for ages.

He also echoed the words of Tesla's technical director, Jeffrey Brian Straubel, that the cost of components in a conventional roof is mainly determined by their weight.

Gold photovoltaic tiles designed by Tesla weigh 4 or even 5 times less than conventional roofing solutions, such as concrete or terracotta tiles.

He calculated that the weight, fragility, cost of transport and the high rate of breakage of traditional tiles constitute a significant part of their total cost.

For Elon Musk, it is certain that by innovating in this market, it is possible to make big savings in production.

This innovation has the potential to significantly accelerate the development of solar roofs around the world.

Of course, the total cost of a solar roof to an individual depends on the size of the house and the difficulty of installing the tiles.

Tesla plans to start production of its solar roof in 2017.

The company has already unveiled 4 different models of photovoltaic tiles. She plans to market one or two models at a time.

This is what Tesla's 4 solar tile models look like that cost less than a classic roof and additionally look like 2 drops of water like classic tiles. Look :

As you can see, Tesla offers particularly impressive solutions in terms of solar energy production and storage.

But remember that the price of producing and storing solar energy depends on the market (cost of electricity, state subsidies, etc.) and your home.
