If you haven’t noticed, there’s a small nation of people collecting clues around Tesla’s Model 3 production. One of the top clue databases is the place where new VINs drop. (VINs = vehicle identification numbers.)
CleanTechnica is a somewhat narrowly focused news & analysis site. We primarily cover technology that helps to reduce pollution (cleantech). It should surprise no one to read that one of the biggest companies in this niche field is Tesla. Tesla now produces far more electric cars on a weekly basis than any other automaker outside of China. It produces and installs solar panels. It produces both home-scale and gigantic battery storage units. And it will soon produce electric semi trucks. As such, I’d say it is unsurprising that a large portion of our stories concern Tesla in some way or another. But what is going on with CNBC?
New York state’s goals of 50% renewable energy by 2040 include a focus on clean heating and cooling.

Let’s explore why that’s not the case.
As the proud owner of a 2015 Nissan LEAF, I am now an electric car ambassador in my town. Talk about being a big fish in a small pond!
We sat down with Chicago-based S&C Electric’s Andrew Jones to talk about the impact electric vehicles will have on the grid and found that, while there are some near-term challenges, the addition of these massive “batteries on wheels” to our grids hold the potential to add immense value.
For 100 years, most decisions about the US electric grid have been made at the top by electric utilities, public regulators, and grid operators. That era has ended.
Dale Vince, the founder and Managing Director of Ecotricity, gave this interview on 16th November 2017, and I am very pleased to present the third part of it here.
We’ve got three solid signs of Tesla Model 3 production growth — maybe 4 — so we figured it was a good time for another Tesla Model 3 sales update.
