We are in the process of signing a contract to build a new house with Toll Brothers (Big developer). One thing I wanted to know is if anyone has worked with their builder to incorporate Tesla Solar tiles into the build?
On Tesla's website, it wants me to upload the builders info / blue prints and apparently Tesla will work with the builder to get it all installed?
The other thing I noticed about the solar tiles at a quick glance is they provide less energy than panels? Is that right? I plugged in 4k sqft, 2 stories, and a $500 electric bill (3 heat pumps, 400 amp service) and I was shocked it only thought I needed a 9.6 kw system and 1 power wall. Considering I have a 14k/w system and 3 power walls now, it doesn't add up.
One thing that is appealing to me is potentially saving the cost of shingles on the new build and getting a federal tax credit instead
Thanks in advance for anyones feedback on the tiles and or new construction?
