Tesla Roofing Materials

Tesla s solar roof integrates active solar shingle tiles that can produce solar energy with inactive shingles to create a roof that produces solar energy without any actual solar panels.

Tesla roofing materials.

With a 25 year warranty solar roof lasts longer than an average roof and protects your home for decades to come. The price was calculated for a roof where 35 percent of the tiles are solar solar tiles cost more per square foot than non solar tiles in order to generate 53 500 worth of electricity. Unlike aftermarket solar panels they stand in for traditional roofing materials and look like the real thing from. 1 21 85 per square foot is the price of a solar roof derived using similar methodology roof size and energy costs described in consumer reports research this price does not reflect any solar incentives.

Convert sunlight into clean energy with a brand new solar roof. Tesla recommends 21 85 per square foot based on 35 percent. The solar glass roof material they ve developed is extremely durable according to tesla. To test the toughness of the shingles tesla engineers propelled pellets of hail at them at extremely high speed which left the shingles unscathed whereas standard roofing materials were destroyed under those same test conditions.

Solar tiles cost 42 per square foot while non solar costs 11 per square foot. Tesla batteries integrate with solar to reliably capture store and consume the renewable energy provided by the sun. Tesla s solar roof tiles would be made of glass over a photovoltaic substrate. Tesla s active solar shingles cost 2 85 per watt while the inactive shingles cost 5 60 per square foot.

Convert sunlight into clean energy with a brand new solar roof. Tesla will directly handle the complete roofing project from design to installation including the removal of your old roof. The tesla solar roof is a building integrated photovoltaic bipv product that takes the functionality of solar panels and integrates it into roof shingles. Solar roof tiles are more than three times stronger than standard roofing tiles and are engineered for all weather protection.

Tesla does not suggest ordering an all solar roof. A home with tesla roof shingles installed would have both a protective and complete roof and the capacity to generate solar energy but without installing solar panels as well.
