While Elon Musk is preparing for this week’s launch of the Falcon Heavy rocket, his other company is also preparing for a launch. Tesla has made a deal with Home Depot to sell both the PowerWall and Tesla’s solar panels at 800 Home Depot locations.
The retail spaces will be Tesla branded and Tesla employees will be on hand to assist with service and sales.
Home Depot has some 2,200 stores across the country, but the 800-store roll out is still the largest retail presence Tesla has ever known for its energy products. They will be put on display, quite literally — Bloomberg reports that the Tesla retail displays will be 12 feet tall and 7 feet wide, and that some locations will have visual demonstrations of the products.
