There are many things in the cleantech world that are inspiring and fun, but there’s perhaps nothing that quickly inspires more joy than seeing solar-powered carports that power numerous electric vehicles, essentially allowing them to drive on sunshine.
What exactly is Elon Musk’s history with Warren Buffett?
How did Elon Musk grow into the business maverick he is today? It didn’t come easy. Even though the 48-year old tech titan Elon Musk is currently worth more than $40 billion, CNBC reports that the “Tesla and SpaceX boss hasn’t always been so wealthy.”
A little more than 4 years ago, I published an article about why people loved Elon Musk so much. Given that it’s still #ElonMuskDay in California, it seemed like a good time to repost this article. Here it is:
As the Paris Accord and Kigali Amendment implications sweep through North America and the world, more business opportunities will arise.
Tesla’s secret weapon is something that many investors don’t even think to consider when they think of Tesla. CNN Business reminded us that investors only think about EVs when they think about Tesla. However, Tesla’s secret weapon is fueled by the same thing life on Earth is — our sun.
Over the last couple of days, as Tesla continues on this monstrous run, the media seems to have been noting that Tesla is now more valuable than any US automaker’s market cap ever. (Tesla is currently almost exactly the market cap of Ford and GM combined, around $88 billion.) Even though I would now plant myself firmly in the “bull” camp, this is completely untrue, and I think it paints a problematic picture of Tesla.
How did Tesla Energy contribute to the company’s Big Picture fiscal framework in 2019?
It’s a new year, a new decade, and a new Tesla. As we zoom into 2020, we can look back over the years and see how not only Tesla the company has evolved but also its website. In 2010, we didn’t have HTML5 yet and flash websites were all the rage. Also, MySpace was just starting to fizzle out. The 2010s are the decade we are finishing, but Tesla’s website history goes back to 2007, so this is where we will begin. (There was even a time in which many thought we were all going to die in 2012 — Mayan Prophecy — but we survived and so did Tesla, luckily.)
Some of the largest US solar panel manufacturers by capacity will probably see growth over the next decade as we (society in general) move toward using more sustainable, renewable energy. The US solar panel manufacturing has certainly matured a great deal in the past decade, with many companies not making it while others grow to lead the pack. Solar Power World has published a list of the largest solar panel manufacturers in the US by capacity.
