Re: TESLA introduces the SOLAR ROOF. 7Dec 11, 2016 7:13 pm Elon Musk was referring to American Terracotta roof materials when making his comparison - a type of roof that is significantly more expensive both in terms of initial outlay and Through Life Costs that american shingles. It is also more expensive than Australian tile/colorbond roofing. I think the figure I have heard was >$1500 USD per Square, or roughly $240 AUD/sqm (including GST). Given a metal roof typically runs $145/sqm, it makes the solar tile about 65% dearer. Now, this means the break even roof size (assuming zero installation costs) will be just under 110sqm, compared to a colorbond roof + conventional solar panels (assuming a 7kw system, which is the only rough estimate I have found for a Tesla roof at 100sqm). Anything larger, and a conventional roof/solar array is cheaper. Re: TESLA introduces the SOLAR ROOF. 8Dec 12, 2016 7:39 am Thanks planeguy. I wanted to link the video clip where Elon Musk was discussing it but I couldn't find it in the little time I had. EDIT: Like everything that Elon Musk does, the solar roof is attracting plenty of attention. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... -dumb-roof 3in1 Supadiverta.

I looked into it a few years ago and my conclusion was to just build a carport that will support panels and get a system installed separately.
