Net Energy Impact of Our Products Tesla solar panels have generated multiple times the electricity consumed by our factories As of the end of 2020, Tesla (including SolarCity prior to its 2016 acquisition by Tesla) has installed almost 4.0 Gigawatts of solar systems and cumulatively generated over 20.8 Terawatt-hours (TWhs) of emissions-free electricity. For reference, that is multiple times more energy generated by our installations than the total energy Tesla has used to run all our factories since we began producing Model S in 2012. We are striving to always remain a net contributor to renewable energy generation. It is our goal to eventually have all our manufacturing energy needs satisfied through renewable sources where possible. Additionally, we are hoping to see more Tesla vehicle customers installing solar panels or Solar Roof along with a Powerwall to meet their own energy needs in a sustainable way. In conclusion, we are currently enhancing our internal processes for measuring relevant environmental data as accurately and timely as possible. Once this process is completed, Tesla will start publishing Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions in detail.
