Just trying to get a quote from Tesla on solar panels.
They say it's “In order for Tesla to properly size your solar system “
Other venders without a question (including the Tesla solar shingles team) have been fine with a spreadsheet. They have my name, address, usage amounts and monies paid. I don’t see how my private account info will help them size the system and provide a quote. The PG&E bill is actually misleading as it doesn’t easily identify the MCE electricity generation costs and makes it look like I pay less.
“Customers should remember that the best way for any professional solar PV designer to custom design the right system for a customer is to look at the historic electric consumption for the structure where they wish to add solar PV. By looking at the electric consumption history, a system can be designed and sized appropriately to meet the assumed future demand. This information is also important to ensure that the customer does not buy more than what they need, nor buy a system that is too small.”
