Now that V3 is out its even better and cheaper
Mitchell Fiji.
So 30% represents $50,000.00. How about the 60% matching matching tiles? What's the cost??? What is minimum roof pitch?
70k-100k for a new roof with solar . . . what in the world!?!?!?!? Ridiculous. $50k for a new roof on it's own? This is total BULLSHIT!!!!! Give me a break. This is all made up.
Does a solar roof keep the house cooler ? being that it soaking in the sun all day ?? Forgive my ignorance Im new to this.
You can add the cost to your mortgage and get 30% tax credit
this is great video and I was looking for such info. I am currently in process of solar roof installation (with a timelapse video that will directly be sent to Elon Musk :)) and also getting a Model X. Cant wait to start using solar. Couple of follow up questions:
1. Did you figure out the federal tax rebate?
2. How is the solar roof performance after 1 year.
3. any other advice/suggestions that I can follow?
Keep up the good work @Alex
$100K for a roof wtf
Just got my Tesla roof estimate and I have to say I am very disappointed.
My roof is 3147 sf and the cost was $88,587. This would not be bad, but the size of the solar system is 7.86Kw Which would produce only a third of the electricity needed for the year. Solar portion 706 sf @ $51.44 sf ($36,316.64) non-solar portion 2440 sf @ $21.42 sf ($52,264.80). The 706 sf was the maximum size system they could put on the roof as Tesla has limitations. (Whole roof has no obstructions gets sunlight from dawn to dusk).
that roof is a quarter of the homes worth lol
10kw only???? what? you idiots
mine bitcoin if your worried about not using energy.
This roof should last a life time
So about 14 to 16 years to break even on the solar costs. No thanks!
This is goofballs. Even in San Jose, one of the priciest RE and labor markets in the country, NO WAY would a new roof cost 50k. And typical 10kw solar is 25 – 35k before the 30% tax credit. All in, this is at least double the cost of a conventional roof and solar, and in some parts of the country, triple the cost.
This is all bran new technology, and we should be grateful that it actually exist, how many other wealthy individuals, and I am saying very wealthy for generations, and they did not invest, or invent anything, let us be grateful for Elan Musk, and is team of engineers for all their effort, dedication and personal sacrifices to bring us this technology, give thanks for the good, or go back to the old utility monopoly!
I’m from Houston Tx, and a new 30 years roof in a 2300 sf home is $15,000. And that’s a high end roof.
Idk about California. I know houses cost hell of a lot more there but $50,000?? WTH?? May be I should move there n start a new roofing Co.
Hopefully this solar thing is a lot cheaper in 10 years so I can build my retirement home with that altogether in the Texas Hill country. bc I love the concept. There is a hell of a lot of sun there I can tell you that much.
May be stronger as far as output than I'm thinking.
What does it do for your house value? I bet 100k is way worth it, money saved and may get 50k back if you sold your house. Hold on, get more batteries later
His one eyebrow is higher then the other.
1% of the power u collect goes back to the grid…it adds up an its not theirs to take
i did my 27 square roof for 2500$…i installed it my self..this is way over priced an would only be worth it if they allowed you to make money off the excess power u dont use. or if u go on vacation you could sell all the power ur roof is collecting…..but big brother will always have his hand in ur pocket
That is absolute bullshit! 50k for a traditional roof? In ohio that same roof would cost 7-10k. Come on
In Sarasota Florida new replacing roofs are going from $30-$45 thousands.
Solar does not work with the blocking of the sun.
The prices mentioned here seem very inflated
placebo tiles? That aint it cheif…
I ran the numbers, as long as nothing breaks prematurely, its a great deal over the long haul. If Tesla gets the prices down, the power companies should be worried. But their in bed with the govt so they'll be fine. My fear is they'll divert Your power during peak hours to the grid before your pw is topped off. During the winter that's a problem bc if you have multiple pw's it may take all the sun you can get to top them off especially if you have e cars draining them down at night.
35k sounds reasonable for the solar roof, however you must factor in the fact that this is very much Tesla's idea of closed beta testing, chances are Tesla is losing a lot of money to this particular customer as part of an R&D process, it's one thing to make it work for this customer, whole other story to make it sustainable and profitable while further increasing affordability. Case in point the Model 3 is still proving to be challenging to meet the magical $35,000 per car mark. This is exciting though, look forward to the development..!
If they pay 50K for a regular roof I am moving there to start a roofing co. That's ridiculous.
he is such a cool guy. i bet if we ever met in real life we would have been great friends
Holy christ…. 350usd pr month.. In Denmark we use on average 1100usd pr year as a family
This guy said that it costs $100k for the roof. And also that he has installed on his pre-existing roof. And for this guy, it's installed by tesla. So no one really knows who paid for it… And how much.
lol. yeah I'm in Virgina so I guess that makes a big difference but damn a 60 thousand difference for the same size house and same material that's insane
this roof won't pay for itself in your life time bud u still have a 90 dollar bill with a 75000 dollar roof
10,000 is going rate for a roof my brother has a roofing co and he says 50,000will roof a 20,000sq ft house that's architecture shingles gaurantee for 30 years …your numbers are way off
I would be interested in seeing a materials and labor breakdown, Silicon Valley cost of living seems to be coming in to play on that price tag it would be good to know what you're going to pay for just normal USA prices
Frankly, way too damn expensive for a majority of home owners.
This just does not add up. Is he a Tesla employee, a buddy of Elon?
I agree with dude below. 50K for a roof? And it is a simple roof? Even in California. What if the roof leaks? This whole concept is crazy. Dow chemical tested a system for years, as well as several other companies, and all failed. And they say don't walk on it, but expects it to last with rain and hail. This technology is dead on arrival. Just a con to enable Tesla to bail our solar city.
This is one way to get extra revenue for videos.
ima keep it real wit u chief, you need a new intro
Was it 50k for a new roof with solar panels or just a roof of wood and shingles?
Oh god I want one
Bolt not volt
Hi im from Australia and i was just wondering if these tesla tiles r available wold wide yet or r they only available in America at the moment?
The question is does it actually add value to your home. because if you sell you'll get that money back. Does it lower your home owners insurance. Will they cover it if there's an accident.
I just discovered that Tesla WILL NOT perform an OFF-GRID installation. For inexplicable reasons, they MUST be tied to a grid and will not even do business unless your utility company is on their very short list of approved suppliers!
Ripoff and those tiles are not the same as the original contemporary stylish tiles on the initial musk solar roof pump . Total fraud with non stop lies . Its a cult
