I'm new to the energy section of this forum and just getting up to speed on Tesla's energy products. I've wanted solar for my home for years but I could never find an installer that would install panels on a clay tile roof. I guess they consider the tiles too fragile and don't want the liability if they crack them during the installation.

Has anyone found a solution for this, either with Teslas solar products or any brand of panels? I think the solar roof tiles look great but there is really nothing wrong with my roof so it's tough to justify installing a brand new roof just to get solar.

My electric bill runs around $210 per month, which includes charging two Model 3's. So I don't think I would need a particularly large array of panels to cover my costs. Just looking for any ideas if anyone else has encountered this problem and found a solution.

Thanks,
