How is Elon Musk's atomic trio saving the world?

Over the weekend, Elon Musk stepped onto the stage to speak, opening up to talk about the effects of climate on the Earth today. Musk gradually leads listeners to Tesla's secret product, " What's interesting is that every house around you is a solar home. Is anyone paying attention?".

Obviously, the crowd was surprised and surprised: every house looked perfectly normal and did not have any identity of a solar-powered home, because the roof was not placed one at all. Large solar panels.

And that's the future of a solar cell: the Sun's roof tile, one of Elon Musk's latest products."Perhaps this is the product that will make you tell your neighbors" Sang looks at my new tile roof ", and that's not a saying you often hear , " Elon Musk joked.

4 different types of tiles, no shortage of choices for you.

From every angle, we will see this glazed tile is no different from a normal brick tile. But with glass material, sunlight can penetrate the outer layer into the solar system inside. This is a step in Musk's plan to install solar panels and clean energy production, in addition to acquiring SolarCity for more than $ 2 billion.

According to Musk's introduction, this tile will be "as hard as steel" , able to withstand extreme weather conditions during use. How long will it last? According to Musk said, "The tile is made of quartz stone, it will be able to have an endless lifespan". Besides, this tile can also be made to be suitable for other types of weather and climate.

Italian Tuscan style - Smooth glass brick Glass brick - French style tile.

Responding to a reporter's question, Musk says that these tiles are perfectly comparable to today's solar panels. But these bricks are still not the final product, but the team is now looking to transform these bricks into opaque colors, but it can increase the efficiency of generating electricity from the sun.

These tiles are just one of the three products of Tesla's "atomic trio" , and all are within Elon Musk's ambition to provide clean energy to the world.

Experiment with Terracotta tiles - Calcined clay bricks - Stone slabs - Tesla's roof tiles.

That dream home will consist of a roof from the solar bricks, inside the house will be a Powerwall 2.0 solar storage and outside the yard, a Tesla electric car will park at there.

In addition to the Powerwall battery, this second version will have twice the amount of power in the previous version, 14 kWh versus 6.4 kWh and, more amazingly, it will come with a 10-year warranty adapter, be allowed to exchange New infinite during warranty period.

Powerwall 2 will be able to hold the cheapest household lithium ion battery position ever built, when it is officially delivered to users in January. They are currently selling this household battery at a cheaper price than competitors' and as a price analyst for this technology, Yayoi Sekine said, "it will do reduce the cost of the whole battery market down ". This is also what Musk has done with his rocket company SpaceX, pulling the entire market down with the ability to provide cheap service.

"The future of this industry is these advanced solar batteries," Elon Musk said.

Battery prices are still falling and are expected to continue to fall.

It seems Powerwall 2 is ready to make changes. But the roof tiles are still not a lot of information, let us wait for the detailed plan that Elon Musk gives it.

In the first 9 months, this project will have a slow progress but as expected by SolarCity co-founder, Mr. Peter Rive, within 2 years after being officially produced and installed, the powerful tiles This Sun will account for 5% of the 5 million tile roofs in the United States.

Currently, the price of this energy roof is quite "acrid" , although its long-term use value is huge. This will still be an extremely high-end product, at least in the first official selling phase. CEO of SolarCity, Mr. Lyndon Rive notes that the cost of such a roof will range from 7,000 to 70,000 USD, depending on its size, material or complexity. Giving an accurate price at the present time is really difficult.

One of three elements of Tesla's Three Atomic Set.

Tesla will provide additional financial information about the deal with SolarCity, as well as other information related to its plan only this week, before the plan is handed to shareholders to vote.

If everything goes well, later this year, we will be able to enter a Tesla store, buy a Model 3 tram, shop for an energy roof and buy a Powerwall 2 battery to shop for one the future is full of clean energy.

Let's also see how Elon Musk changes this world!
