Tesla promised 1,000 Solar Roofs per week by 2019. It installed roughly 3,000 total, stopped reporting numbers, and is now pivoting to conventional panels.
Probably the only bonus of that system is that it buys you 3 more feet on the sides of your roof as code requires panels be mounted with that gap to provide walking access to firefighters.
Historic home, I will only put panels on the back of the house because of the appearance, but would love the benefit of front panels for the afternoon sun.
I really was excited about the powerroof when it was announced, Tesla wasn’t awful then, but lately I have wondered and just assumed it was an abandoned idea by now.

So…not a lot.
