Model S Owner and Frustrated Tesla Fan
Helpful. I still want to see a schedule of borrowings by duration and interest rate, matched up with a schedule of homeowners' contracts by remaining duration and effective interest rate. This would allow me to evaluate SolarCity's exposure to refinancing risks.Most these abs come up in 2020+ timeframe
SolarCity has failed to present one.
Remember, I think Silevo and Zep are great acquisitions for Tesla... it's entirely the financing side which I dislike.
I live in New York. Right now, SolarCity is completely uncompetitive in my part of upstate. Solar panels are going up all over and they aren't the ones installing them. There's some evidence that there are *diseconomies* of scale in the solar installation business and that a local installer can be "leaner and meaner". The panel + racking business is where the economies of scale might be.New York is another key state in this way
