Tesla helps reduce electricity bills by 92%, thanks to Elon Musk

Our fossil fuel consumption will not be reduced until we accelerate the production of renewable energy technologies.

Imagine you live in a four-bedroom home with a range of electrically-controlled appliances. You calculate an average of 2,289 USD per year for electricity. But since last year, after installing Tesla's Powerwall battery system , a rechargeable lithium battery comes with a 5kWp solar battery system, SolarEdge inverters and Reposit monitoring system , electricity for Your house is only 178.71 USD.

The story is completely real and it belongs to Nick Pfitzner, the first Australian to install Tesla's Powerwall battery system for his home. One year after installation, he found that his electricity costs had decreased by 92%, with the quarterly electricity bill falling from 572 USD in 2015 to only 45 USD in 2016. Even in In a certain quarter, he also pocketed $ 50 because excess electricity was sold back to the grid.

Tesla has a vision of a future lit up by clean energy and Powerwall batteries that are only part of it.

"The system will prioritize supplying electricity to anything you need in the house, then the power will be charged to the battery and if it is left, it will be sold back to the grid," Pfitzner explained in one go interview.

The total cost for Pfitzner's solar system is about $ 16,790, and he believes he will pay the full amount within eight years.

Tesla has a vision of a future lit up by clean energy and Powerwall batteries that are only part of it. Tesla's Gigafactory 1 currently produces both Powerwall and Powerpack batteries, an important part of that vision. At the same time, it is also the driving force for the progress in creating sustainable energy technologies that are cheaper and able to reach the public.

Last year, Tesla partnered with SolarCity to create Sun Panels and the project will be completed this year. These Sunshades convert sunlight into energy for direct use or storage in the Powerwall battery system. Elon Musk also suggested that this technology could be used in developing solar powered cars.

Tesla has partnered with SolarCity to create Sun Panels.

Musk has also started a project called "The Boring Company," whose goal is to reduce traffic congestion by building underground grid tunnels in densely populated cities. These tunnels can be used as a secondary transport system.

But don't forget another Tesla goal is electric cars. The Model S has set a target of running 1,000 km after just one charge this year. And by 2020, that distance could increase to 1,199 km.

With all that being done, it's hard to imagine that Tesla can accomplish everything. But with Elon Musk's vision of the future has been supported by many people, and this support will help the company fulfill its missions. Globally, our fossil fuel consumption cannot be reduced until we accelerate the production of renewable energy technologies, so Tesla and other like-minded companies will Take the lead, help us create a path towards the future of clean energy.
