Elon’s acquisition of Twitter, opinions about crypto and various lawsuits. What Tesla needs to do is to actively craft its brand image with Chinese consumers, perhaps with a shifted focus on its tech advancements with batteries and Autopilot, not just cars. It can also be extremely volatile f...
The issue crystallized this week when some Tesla owners in Chicago discovered their EVs' batterieshad diedin sub-zero temperatures. Drivers also said some of Tesla charging stations weren't working, or if they did work that the stations were taking longer than usual to charge up their vehicles...
For Kerle, his driving experiences took a turn for the better in 2019 when he took delivery of his Tesla Model 3. By then, he was living in a Phoenix suburb and his commute was very long. Since electric vehicles have lane access, he figured that a Tesla could help himget to work and...
and driving the transition to a more decentralized grid. Tesla and SolarCity, run by Musk’s cousin Lyndon Rive,have been positioning themselvesto take advantage of this space. SolarCity has been running a pilot program that pairs its panels with Tesla batteries, and Musk, who sits on SolarCity...
The community, called Altona Towns, features 27 fully occupied homes and is located in Pickering, Ontario. Solar panels are built on the roof of one of the housing blocks and generate roughly 10 per cent of the po...
The system I went with is a Tesla Powerwall and 8.1 kW solar system. I should note that in addition to the very low interest rates for the solar and battery system, there are government rebates and incentives for heat pumps, solar panels and batteries. ...
emerging technologies such as supercapacitors, which could have great implications for electric car technology. This is where Tesla’s acquisition of Maxwell Technologies could come into play. Maxwell, after all, is primarily noted for two of its innovations: dry electrode batteries and supercapacitors...
Tesla is also further driving coordinated development with energy storage business and solar technology. Maxwell’s high-energy high-density batteries and its engineering design for battery pack and chassis can help Tesla achieve even lower energy consumption and longer driving range for its products. ...
Tip: Providing the capacity to charge the AEVs (largely overnight during fleet redundancy) will be its own challenge, and some form of inductive or smart conductive charging will need to further develop. However, should Tesla’s approach of establishing a fleet of customer-owned AEVs take ...
