This Roadster drive sounds a lot like Martin's Roadster. I wonder if he knew about this one from 2004?


From here:
Wavecrest Energy Systems
BluWāv™ Systems - Changing the way the world moves™
They even have an ESS

Interesting...


BluWāv (Wavecrest) Headquarters
1613 Star Batt Drive
Rochester Hills, Michigan 48309

Tesla Technical Center
1840 Enterprise Dr
Rochester Hills, Michigan 48309

(They are less than 1 mile apart!)

Also, they both reportedly have tech centers in Thailand

(coincidence or collaboration?)

I read somewhere that Tesla's facility in Michigan has been "shuttered".

Can anybody confirm or deny?

It isn't true. We still have a very active office there. Many of the folks there are focused on the WhiteStar program, but others are also assigned to the Roadster program, particularly around supply chain and other operational responsibilities.
