Musk: April 30 Tesla will show a new product, and this is not a car

An hour and a half ago, Ilon Musk, chairman and CEO of Tesla Motors, said in his Twitter account that the company will show some new product line next month at a design studio in Hawthorne, California. Musk specifically hinted that this product is not a new electric car, but the tips end there. What it really is, it will be possible to find out only on May 1 at 6 am Moscow time (April 30 at 8:00 pm PDT).


Among the various guesses, what is the new product, you can select the version of the battery for homes and offices. In February of this year, Tesla Motors told about its future battery for owners of solar panels - in order to reduce electricity costs, photovoltaic cells need to be stored for later use. Then Tesla management stated that it is households, private clients, that can become the most extensive sales market for energy storage systems.

Even then, these plans caused a positive assessment : Tesla batteries paired with SolarCity panels provide a reduction in energy costs by 20-30 percent according to GTM Research. Batteries of the company Ilona Mask are already installed in the buildings of private companies, for example, in Walmart stores.

Also among the probable versions there are new data on the “ Gigafabrika ”, a huge factory of electric batteries in the United States. By 2020, it is planned to achieve an annual total power output of 35 gigawatt-hours of batteries.

Updated 15:40 2015-03-31: 115 characters in microblogging made Tesla Motors $ 900 million more expensive - because of the tweet Mask, the share price rose by 4%.
