Tesla Discontinues Solar Roof Tiles Due to Economic Viability

Hyperdash NewsEquities

Tesla has discontinued production of its Solar Roof tiles, citing a lack of economic viability for the product, according to a report by Electrek. This move signals a strategic shift within Tesla's energy division and could affect the company's long-term revenue forecasts and market perception of its diversification efforts.

This discontinuation follows years of challenges for Tesla's solar business. Wood Mackenzie reported that Tesla installed only 3,000 Solar Roof systems in the U.S. since the product's 2016 introduction, far short of its 2019 goal to install 1,000 per week in the first half of 2020. Panasonic also exited solar cell production at Tesla's New York plant in 2020. On Hyperdash,

Tesla, Inc. is down -0.06% since the news broke.
