> Tesla’s Solar Roof website now includes a pricing estimator, which lists $42,500 as the total price for the average 2,000 square-foot home, with 10kW solar panels. It also lists $33,950 as the price after an $8,550 federal tax incentive. You can also enter your address and get an updated estimate that takes into account local costs and incentives, and add on any Powerwalls (with three as the default for a 2,000 square-foot roof).
$42k does not sound like the solar roof is cheaper than a traditional roof. What kind of roof are they comparing it to? A mini-mansion with terra-cotta shingles or asphalt shingles?
A quick google search and home advisor suggests it’s about half the price.
