    Not sure how much their non-automotive market is, but they do have other product lines, like solar, battery backup, etc.

    Their battery systems run the gamut from Powerwalls for the home to huge utility-grade systems that power companies around the world purchase.

    I have a neighbor that has solar panels & a powerwall. He showed me how over the summer excess power is sold back to the power utilities as part of a distributed virtual power plant that consists of over 1200 powerwall owners around the region.

      It’s such a shame melon husk is such a massive weenie, because they have or had some interesting products there. Oh well, I suppose you can buy whole home battery systems from other suppliers hey ho.
