    Tesla or another Integrated Solar Roof experience?

    How well does Tesla roof do for heat control as compared to normal roof like Spanish tile?

    Tesla or another Integrated Solar Roof experience?

    I think what they mean is technology hasn’t been around long enough to find and resolve issues as compared to PV panels.
