Tesla’s putting a “Tiny House” on tour today in Australia, as it unveiled a project that would demonstrate its solar roof panels and Powerwall home energy storage batteries. Tesla wants to demonstrate how a sustainable energy home could work.
Australia enjoys a healthy dose of sunshine for most of the year— in fact, it has the highest average solar radiation per square meter than any other continent on Earth, making the “Land Down Under” an ideal place for solar energy farms and home solar products.
Tesla is hitting the road across Australia in a tiny house powered by 100% renewable energy.
Pulled by a Tesla Model X SUV, the house features a Tesla mobile design studio so visitors can check out and learn how to set up their own Tesla solar and energy storage system.
The Tiny House is powered by solar energy using a six-panel 2kW solar system attached to a Powerwall battery, where energy can be stored throughout the day and night.
I wonder if Tesla is just showing off what they can do or are they serious about entering the Tiny House market. I’ll find out next week when Elon Musk stops by for our monthly lunch at our favorite restaurant…. Waffle House.
