Those anti-Solarcity, how do you think Solarcity has financed billions of dollars of installs on ~300-400mln annual income? I guess those long lists of tax equity partners are making financially unprofitable decisions and also should be out of business for repeatedly, over and over again, investing in these vehicles for years now.
Surely Solarcity should have been bankrupt for years now, how are they even in existence form 2006 to today?
How are rating agencies giving them BBB+, which are better ratings then Xcel energy and other traditional utilities paper? Those rating agencies must be fooled, right?
How is it they have over a 99% on time payment history on all instslls, with an average FICO score of over 740 on those 20 years of monthly payments? They have over $12bln in nominal contracted payments coming in over the next 20 years, the I guess they are really fooling these rooftop solar customers too.
If you have any real facts to say Solarcity would be any burden on tesla, please bring it to the table here. It's actually the opposite.
Solarcity can find itself much better then tesla can, just compare how many stock offerings have been made on the public markets and you'll see who's diluting their shareholders at a much higher rate. It is a glaring obvious fact, Solarcity has many more avenues of access to capital then tesla does, it's not even close. It anything, tesla will use Solarcity to raise money for its operations, not the other way around.
