Twenty million shares traded by an hour before the market opens - getting to be a bit of a habit, isn’t it?
That's Fred.Been a lot of good news on the storage part of the energy biz finally getting a little momentum.... the solar side, not so much
I am on the receiving end of this with a new construction. The plan is to install in two stages. First they prep and waterproof the roof. Then they wait for the tiles to become available for the second and final stage. The time between may be as much as six months. Probably less for me as I am already in the queue and am optimistic they will be available in the fall when my house construction should be finishing.Tesla pauses solar roof installations due to supply issues; some clients will be left without a roof for months
Tesla has paused solar roof installations due to issues with getting its solar roof tiles. Now some clients will be...electrek.co

That's Fred.
Solar installations we're up 28% last year during the chip shortage to 183GW. 2022 is projected to be between 205 and 250GW.
Awesome, congrats! I did the same with its little cousin MYP Absolutely love it and think it’s better than my 2015 model s in every way except for some finishing materials on the inside like alcantara headliner, leather dash and door panels, etc; different class of a car though, so that’s to be expected.Did my part for the quarter.

It goes without saying, but while your saving money putting a few more miles on your Ford Focus, you can put your savings into buying Tesla shares. It's the TSLA prepayment plan!My plans had been to buy a Model Y once TSLA reached a target (which should happen later this year) and eventually trade it once the Cybertruck is available.
The long lead times and price increases have changed things and I'll keep the Ford Focus kicking until either:
A) Model Y increase in production rate allows price/lead time to be reduced, or
B) Cybertruck reservation queues up
Likewise to @jhm, I completely understand Tesla's strategy and sincerely want them to keep doing what is best for the company.
Congrats, I also did the same two months ago.Did my part for the quarter. Picked up this baby yesterday in Marina Del Ray.

Well, if I had an income, I would. Couches are empty since retirement a year ago.It goes without saying, but while your saving money putting a few more miles on your Ford Focus, you can put your savings into buying Tesla shares. It's the TSLA prepayment plan!
Same to you. Agreed.Awesome, congrats! I did the same with its little cousin MYP Absolutely love it and think it’s better than my 2015 model s in every way except for some finishing materials on the inside like alcantara headliner, leather dash and door panels, etc; different class of a car though, so that’s to be expected.
All these max profit margin cars can’t be bad for the bottom line!

I am on the receiving end of this with a new construction. ...
We install Solar Roof in two phases. The 1st phase is Dry-in (water-proofing). This stage will be scheduled once you can provide a date when the following items will be completed. These items do not need to be completed right now, but just by the date you provide. During dry-in we will come out and install our underlayment. Your roof will be water-tight once we dry-in the roof. The underlayment is good for up to 6 months exposed to elements. This stage will take approximately 2 days. There can be no other contractors on-site during installation.
Nice targets, but no mandate for medium or heavy vehicles though.The Government is also enacting a sales mandate that 20 per cent of light-duty vehicle sales will be zero-emission by 2026. By 2030, this mandate will rise to at least 60 per cent. By 2035 it will be 100 per cent.
Hopefully, the arbitrary upper-limits are removed. They make zero sense for a EV with a 1M+ mile expected lifespan vs an ICE vehicle with a quarter of that useful service life. Cybertrucks alone could be on the roads for 50 years! No Rust! (that's a thing in Canada)The Government also confirmed that it will expand the Federal EV rebate program by $1.7 billion. According to reporting by The Canadian Press, the Government will expand the program to include used vehicles and more expensive models.
Sorry, it sounds like a stressful situation. I've been waiting for solar panels but at least I have a roof.I am on the receiving end of this with a new construction. The plan is to install in two stages. First they prep and waterproof the roof. Then they wait for the tiles to become available for the second and final stage. The time between may be as much as six months. Probably less for me as I am already in the queue and am optimistic they will be available in the fall when my house construction should be finishing.
But this is not a new thing. A known issue for several months, hence the process they have set up. The email below is from over a month ago:
We install Solar Roof in two phases. The 1st phase is Dry-in (water-proofing). This stage will be scheduled once you can provide a date when the following items will be completed.

There can be no other contractors on-site during installation.
• 100% roof sheathing completed (date to be completed?)
• 100% roof vents completed (plumbing, DMVs, heat producing vents, and skylights installed with a 4-6” curb) (date to be completed?)
• Fascia installed (wrapped and painted) (date to be completed?)
• Permit received from city (done)
Once you confirm a date when these items will be finished, we can place you on the calendar for dry-in.
The 2nd Phase of Solar Roof installation is Tile installation and Powerwall installation. This will take approximately 2-5 days to finish. We will schedule this once you can confirm a date when the following will be completed. There can be no other contractors on-site during Solar Roof and Powerwall installation.
We are currently experiencing material shortages, so we cannot currently schedule a date for tile installation, however, we will schedule you for dry-in. Material shortages are affecting the whole solar industry.
- Siding or Stucco is 100% completed
- Conduit Rough-ins need to be completed (1” EMT or flexible metal conduit from the attic to the main panel. 4S deep junction box located under each Solar Roof array)
- Permanent electrical service installed
- Windows and doors are installed
- Painting is done
The supply chain issues are definitely a bummer.
