IN 2023 $TSLA WILL RECEIVE $10B+ IN VALUE* FROM #InflationReductionAct
*Value can be reflected in the form of direct revenue to $TSLA, better pricing power, and/or bargaining leverage. 1/

1. 890K 🚗 Sales in 🇺🇸: $7.5K Consumer/Commercial Vehicle Credits = $6.7B. Includes 500K 3/Y and 90K S/X from Fremont + 250K Ys and 50K #CyberTrucks from Austin. All these 🚗are eligible to receive the $7.5K credit via commercial/biz/gov fleet sales OR via consumer leases. 2/
Even though a portion of these vehicles will get exported, @Tesla still gets the pricing power benefit of the $7.5K credit (otherwise, why export?). In addition to no battery sourcing reqs, the Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit has no price or income limits either. 3/

Did you know that 7% of global carbon emissions come from road #freight transportation? 🚚
And that @Tesla's Semi truck has almost 2x the range of its competitors?

1/ Trucking needs disruption 🚚💥
7% of global carbon emissions come from road freight transportation, aka trucking.
This is comparable to that of the global aviation industry, and arguably much easier to #decarbonise.

2/ Tesla are NOT the first 🥇
Improvements in battery #tech have gone leaps and bounds, to the point where traditional trucking companies like:
@freightliner
@VolvoTrucks
@KenworthTruckCo
and new ones:
@BYDCompany
@nikolamotor
have all released their own electric trucks ⚡🔋

@Elonmusk was great, but I was wondering, who was that guy presenting alongside @Elonmusk at the #TeslaSemi delivery event today?? Here’s a thread with some info I put together for the Tesla Twitter community on Dan, a leader for Tesla’s trucking unit.

🧵👇
@elonmusk @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt @jasondebolt @Scobleizer @farzyness @BMT094 @teslaherbert @klwtts @Teslaconomics His name is Dan Priestley. Currently a Senior Manager of Semi Truck Engineering, leading development and business units. He’s been with Tesla for over a decade. But let’s start from where he came before joining #Tesla.
Dan was a Division 1 student athlete at Stanford University. He studied Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, while playing Defensive End for the Stanford Cardinals football team. 🌲🏈📚
Judges Farm Tesla Semi Roadmap:
Fall 2020: Install 100kw grid-connected solar on 1/3 acre of marginal land. System cost including install: $200,000.
Incentives:
1) 26% Federal tax credit, so $52,000 off our 2020 tax bill.

2) Federal Dept. of Agriculture REAP grant: 25% of cost of system, so a check for $50,000 once system is up and running.
3) Eversource ZREC (Renewable Energy Credit) program. Eversource (our CT power company) to pay us $100 per 1000 kWh (1 REC) generated per yr *for 15 yrs*

System will generate 134,000 kWh per year, so a total benefit of $201,000 over the course of 15 years.
Total Incentives: $303,000. We’ll actually be *making* 2.8% annual ‘return’ on the system over the 15 years. AND, we’ll also eliminate our $700/mo. current electric bill.
