As the CEO of Tesla Elon Musk pointed out on 2021, “We did find that we basically made some significant mistakes in assessing the difficulty of certain roofs, but the complexity of roofs varies dramatically.” It is now almost 2023 and as this article claims, Tesla has taken some drastic action pausing or canceling tenths or even hundreds of Tesla Solar roof customers. “As we cannot complete your order, we have processed your cancellation”.
SolarExamine has found out that many of the prospects were not canceled but rather given to a different solar energy contractor who needed to readjust the original bid provided by Tesla to now show a much higher price. This obviously left a lot of customers angry.
As SolarExamine pointed out in this article, Tesla’s bidding process was complicated, laborious but the worst of all was that it led to massively under-pricing the Tesla Solar Roof installation.
Why get a solution for appropriately bidding the Tesla Solar Roof?
The bidding or pricing process of the Tesla Solar Roof can be laborious and there is a lot of room for error: Not Counting an obstruction, worryingly inputting the roof pitch are just a few common errors when it comes to the Tesla Solar Roof bids.
And that’s why:
SolarExamine developed a process that involves industry standard softwares as well as custom-made interfaces with the sole purpose of providing the most accurate bids. Our bidding calculations for Tesla Solar Roof was inspired by Tesla’s framework but the process was significantly improved. We do take every single roof parameter such as dead valleys, obstructions, and others that may increase the price of the installation into consideration. We have a team of engineers and trained employees that know exactly how to bid the Tesla Solar Roof or any other solar system. We invite contractors over the greater Los Angeles area, Northern California and Oregon to contact us and try our method.
