    I believed in Musk’s vision

    The idea has it’s pros and that’s why there’s a market. Autarq, paXos, SolteQ und Nelskamp are the competition.

    Sadly, in our case (scenic protected village core) they count still as solar, which isn’t allowed. They would make the most sense there. Our administration should get an update.

    And even if they all have gone bust at the end of their lifetime (~30 years), you’ll still have a roof.

      pity. I had a chat with the founder of Autarq a while ago. According to him, in the market they’re selling to (Germany/central Europe) their solar tiles usually get accepted in exactly these scenarios (protected/historical buildings) — and it’s what keeps the company alive despite the significantly higher cost.

      The IDEA is great. The man who sold it to them is a known con-artist and liar and they had no shortage of warning before they got in bed with him.
