Shown during the conference is a collaboration controlled by Elon musk of two companies: Tesla and Solar City.
the First of the presented solutions is called the Solar Roof. This special set of panels, designed to cover the roof of any house and obtain energy from sunlight.
Each of the segments of the Solar Roof, consisting of three layers of special coatings, safety glass and solar panels. Segments you can cover the surface of the entire roof. Musk has introduced 4 types of coatings, which differ in their design, allowing to correspond to the character of a particular building.
the Head of Tesla did not specify the exact amount for which you can purchase a set of Solar Roof. Said, however, to say that the cost of coating a roof will not be higher than the sum of the traditional roof and energy bills, which you obviously will save. Environmental roof needs to be available in the summer of 2017.
the Addition of a Solar Roof needs to be a new model, already known in the market device called a Powerwall. This type of home battery for accumulating and storing energy (such as that obtained from solar panels on the roof).
the Mask ensures that the Powerwall 2 is better and more powerful than its predecessor. Allows for the meeting of 14 kW and maximum power, the proposed device is 7 kW. Powerwall 2 will be put on sale in winter this year, and the cost with installation will be about. 6.5 thousand. dollars.
