this is the future of energy! end to end energy production, storage as well as one of the greatest energy users all under one roof. combined in a useful package, this could change the energy market dramatically.

if tesla now produces a range of trucks and thereby also enters the transportation sector, they're completing the full circle.



Then why is SolarCity failing so direly that they're reduced to their founder using his other company to bail them out?


Does Tesla have mining operations? Does SolarCity make its own panels?


I believe it was going to start manufacturing its own panels (IRIC in NY State)


SolarCity was making their own "gigafactory" in Buffalo, NY last I heard - https://www.technologyreview.com/s/600770/10-breakthrough-te...


That article says that New York state is paying for and building the factory.

Self-driving solar-powered electric trucks, that is.
