I may have to abandon installing the Tesla Solar Roof on my home. After fighting with my HOA to get it approved (required letter from an attorney) and pulling permits back in February, my Solar Advisor informed all Solar Roof installations were on hold due to a shortage of some parts (global supply chain issues). Latest info is that they won't start up again until at least Q3 or Q4 of this year. I remodeled my home and am missing part of my roof so I can't delay installation indefinitely. Has anyone on this forum installed a Solar Roof this year? Any other info on the cause of the delays or level of certainty for the parts becoming available?
On a related note, what sort of lead time are people experiencing on installation of traditional Tesla solar panel systems? How long from signing a contract to installation and/or powering on the system? I realize that the last part is highly dependent on the local power company but I'm trying to figure out timing so I get the higher tax credit this year (26%) instead of next year (22%).
TIA on both fronts.
