Tesla's Solar Roof has had a rough start. Originally introduced in Oct. 2016, the Solar Roof was re-worked several times, and has only gone into wider distribution this year, partially due to Tesla's well-documented struggles to produce its Model 3 at volume.

But it now seems Tesla is serious about making its Solar Roof ubiquitous. On Sunday, Tesla CEO Elon Musk revealed on Twitter that the company plans to offer the roof internationally "later this year."

Musk would not name individual countries in which the roof would be offered, but he did say that the roof will initially be produced in Tesla's Gigafactory in New York, with production going international with time.

Tesla's Solar Roof simplifies (and, ideally, reduces cost of) the process of installing solar panels on your roof by combining the panels and tiles into one. Musk often highlighted the Roof's appearance, claiming that it's visually far more appealing than traditional solar panels and traditional roofs.

Musk also encouraged all interested to apply for a job in Tesla's Solar Roof team. The company is hiring roofers and installers in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Oregon, Texas, Utah. and Virginia.

In Pakistan we are forced to waste billions all around. Be it houses or utility systems or infrastructure or health and safety, sports, engineering, planning etc.

This is why we will never be like any bit of developed world in our out look, for any foreseeable time in future, but it's doable in matter of few years.

As far ruling party is concerned they are most inept bunch ever, they are only good for meaning less speeches and pointing fingers.

As far solar is concerned, Pakistan is last in race, thanks to the propaganda by the corrupt mafia, in yesteryears.
Even oil /gas rich countries are turning to solar... because economics is simple. every second sunshine miss the solar panel, we loose $.

By this basic economics, this solar energy should have been on top of state agenda from past 15 years and on war basis from past 10 years.
Can you imagine, our donkey rulers are not even capable to have brains enough to understand it.

It's all part of plan to cripple Pakistan at the grass roots level.

There are many NGOs who are helping poor people of Sindh, by installing them solar pumps.
IMF knows it and want an end to it, non other than all powerful Imran Khan is better to execute the task.

Please stop with misinformation on technical stuff.
In west construction styles are different... which western country you have in your mind?
In Pakistan we have scrap in the name of house, which is scattered all over Pakistan.

Yeah but cement is what kills people in earthquakes. It is not unusual for thousands or even tens of thousands to die in an earthquake in much of the world. It’s usually by being crushed by their own home. Meanwhile the worst death toll from ANY earthquake in the US in the last 100 years is around 165...and we are in the “Ring of Fire”.
