People are trying but it's quite a bit more expensive than a traditional roof.


More expensive than roof+solar?

Do you have references to any solutions, other Tesla's popular, pretty and expensive version?

A flush panel-only roof seems more aesthetic than shingles + raised solar, and would be good-enough for me.


>More expensive than roof+solar?

Comparable, but that's not the right comparison. It's between a roof and buying your power from the power company and roof+solar. The first is way cheaper.

If we want to be green than still, a roof + 1,000 sq feet of solar out in the country connected to your house by wires is way cheaper.
