If feels so good to be slowly proven right. As I predicted it long time ago, Tesla would lose traction once the other car companies get their things together. Audi, VW, Nissan, Renault, etc will rule the market and Tesla will become a niche product ala Apple. Tesla might have better EV technology, but that's not everything to make it, their cars are way too cheap looking inside for their price category, they have a precarious service network, and they have no foot in the lower price bracket. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I've pointed out before, don't look at monthly sales from Tesla, especially in international markets!!! You have so much need to be proven right that you are ignoring basic things like: There is a clear pattern of ups and down over last year. Why? Because cars come in ships, so deliveries are not done in large numbers every month. Month basis analysis is so wrong that other car makers are adopting quarterly numbers In Q4 Tesla diverted all available cars to Netherlands, due to tax reasons. They sold 12.000 Model 3 in one month in the Netherlands! And over 17.000 in the whole quarter! This means no more stock left. To replenish stock, you need more ships to arrive 4 ships are coming from America as we speak. Sales in late March/April will reflect that. 1 ship arrived today 2 ships arrived in January/February There is no demand issue. A colleague of mine is waiting for his since October! 1 hour ago, Krieg said: Tesla might have better EV technology, but that's not everything to make it, their cars are way too cheap looking inside for their price category, they have a precarious service network, and they have no foot in the lower price bracket. Have you actually ever driven one? I have a Mercedes to compare, of the same class level, and there are things that one does better than the other, but no clear winner in terms of quality. Service has been debated over and over, not going to repeat myself again. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 28 Feb 2020 18 hours ago, arsenal21 said: Panasonic to end partnership for solar cell production and so NY Gigafactory could be shuttered Wrong again. Quote Panasonic parting ways isn't bad for Tesla The two partners haven’t been so cozy of late as Panasonic’s solar roof project with Tesla TSLA hasn’t been going great and it also hasn’t been able to churn out the car battery volumes that Tesla was looking for. But while the Nevada-based battery plant that recently turned a profit will remain in operation, Panasonic is bowing out of the Buffalo commitment in N.Y. as part of a broader push to quit unprofitable business lines. “The decision to transition away from U.S. solar manufacturing in Buffalo aligns with our global solar strategy,” said Panasonic executive Shinichiro Nakajima. So the company will stop production by May-end and exit the factory by September-end. At issue is likely the mechanical strength of Panasonic devices, because roofs need to be stronger than batteries and since the company wasn’t able to meet the standard, Tesla’s sales were impacted. So Tesla won’t be inconvenienced, because it’s already buying what it needs from Chinese suppliers, which are the ones with the cheaper, good-quality components that are pushing Panasonic out of the market. Many affluent California customers are interested in Tesla’s solar roofing and the company is reportedly hiring roofers, installers and electricians in many other states as well. So while the company isn’t shipping the 1,000 solar roofs a week like some were expecting, it looks like this is finally on the road to reality. the rest 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Feb 2020 "Tesla “big battery” in Australia is becoming a bigger nightmare for fossil fuel power generators" Quote Tesla’s “big battery” utility-scale Powerpack system at the Hornsdale Power Reserve in South Australia has yielded more than doubled the savings to consumers in 2019 than the year prior as it dominates fossil fuel generators on quicker demand response for the grid. Hornsdale Power Reserve saved consumers AUD116 million ($75.78 million) in 2019, a big jump from AUD40 million ($26.14 million) savings in 2018. ... “Hornsdale has just been the best asset for the state, and for us as well, it’s a real success story,” head of development at Neoen Australia Garth Heron said in an interview with RenewEconomy. We have shown that these kinds of systems can work. It saves consumers a lot of money, and it’s something we should be rolling out right across the market.” ... A report by Australian consulting firm Aurecon analyzed the impact of the Tesla big battery at Hornsdale Power Reserve in its role in the Frequency Control and Ancillary Services (FCAS) markets. These are basically events that require quick reactions when there are sudden changes in demand or supply. For example, when the Australian Energy Market Operator called for 35MW of FCAS in January, the Tesla big battery was quick to respond and kept prices reasonable. The prices were as low as AUD270 ($176)/MW instead of hitting AUD11,500($7,511)/MW to AUD14,000($9,143)/MW if supplied by the fossil fuel-dependent generators. When South Australia was “islanded” because of a major outage in Victoria, the HPR was able to save consumers AUD14 million in five hours. ... The Hornsdale Power Reserve also has a significant impact on FCAS market regulation. Tesla battery use has pushed the average prices from AUD450 ($294)/MWh two years before the installation of HPR to just over AUD20 ($13)/MWH. With lower prices, battery-generated power practically brought fossil fuel power plants, that ruled the region like cartels, to their knees https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-big-battery-hornsdale-australia-cost-savings/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 28 Feb 2020 7 hours ago, fraufruit said: Wrong again. the rest After 3 years they had 31 roofs in California, despite receiving almost a billion in bailout funds from New York. https://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/in-version-3-launch-tesla-acknowledges-difficulties-with-solar-roof-so-far " Tesla does not have roofing installation partners yet, but Musk said he's open to creating a "Tesla-certified installer" program, and enlisting outside roofers to help improve the installation process. That move could get the product to market more rapidly; it eliminates a potential labor bottleneck and leverages the sales capabilities of established companies. According to numbers through April, Tesla had installed just 31 roofs in California, the leading state for residential solar installations. The in-house installers are targeting an entire roof installation in eight hours, which would be seriously speedy. When asked when the roof would be available at mass-scale, Musk replied, "That’s now, actually." But then he noted that anyone can place an order now, whereas actual production was still ramping up. He wants to get to 1,000 per week at some point in the near future." Wake up and smell the snake oil. And, oh yeah, stock down another 10% today. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
