Tesla Solar Roof will cost less to install than regular roof

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says his company's new solar roof will actually cost less for homeowners to install than a regular roof, Bloomberg
reports. “So the basic proposition will be: Would you like a roof that
looks better than a normal roof, lasts twice as long, costs less and—by
the way—generates electricity?” Musk says. “Why would you get anything
else?” According to Business Insider,
Musk made the surprising pronouncement after 85% of Tesla shareholders
approved a $2 billion merger with solar-energy specialist SolarCity on
Thursday. Musk wants solar roofs to be "as appealing as electric cars," Fortune reports.
When Musk says they'll cost less
than a traditional roof, he's talking about the fancy terra cotta and
slate roofs on which they were modeled, not asphalt roofs, which can be
20 times cheaper. Still, Bloomberg states the Tesla solar roof "could be
a real turning point in the evolution of solar power."
