Profile
Tesla was founded in 2003 in Silicon Valley and shifted the rather traditional automotive scene in turmoil. Elon Musk, founder and CEO of the company, who is known among other things for his commitment for example Solar City and SpaceX, describes the overarching goal of Tesla thus, drive change from an internal economy to a solar electric industry. After the introduction of the Tesla Roadster, a supercar in the luxury sector in 2008, the launch of the Model S took place in 2012, the first 100% electric premium sedan. Finally, a few months ago Tesla's third vehicle was presented, the Model X. This SUV combines the space of a minivan with the performance of a sports car. In 2017/2018 the Model 3 will be presented, a typical middle-class vehicle, which will significantly contribute to the final breakthrough of the electric mobility.

Self-Charging Everything: Battle for the High Ground
When some full-function, always-on smartwatches are able to self-charge, the others will look like the horse-drawn cart. When Internet of Things nodes are self-charging at the right size and price, the market for them will increase one thousand times.28 Apr 2020
Is Silicon the Key to Another Technological Revolution?
Silicon is one of the most important materials of the past century. It enabled the digital revolution and the advent of PCs, laptops and smartphones. Its value has been obvious during the recent Covid-19 crisis, allowing many companies, businesses and individuals to remain productive.15 Apr 2020

to sell as many residential battery systems around the world as possible and provide consumers with energy independence from utilites. Many competitors diversified into selling home batteries from other markets, and as a result have less attractive products for the residential market, which is not their priority. Tesla for example started out making electric cars, and LG Chem the battery cells which are supplied to multiple industries.
-A competitive upfront price which seems to be half the cost of the industry average in its main market: Germany.
-There may be battery supply shortages as electric mobility is prioritised by battery makers. However, because automakers have converged on NMC for its higher energy density, Sonnen's choice of LFP cells may be an unexpected advantage.
