This Popular Youtuber Paid $0 Bill Using Tesla Solar Roof To Power AC And TV: 'I Haven't Paid For Electricity For Over A Year'

Popular tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee shared that he has had no electricity bill for an entire year after installing Elon Musk’s Tesla Roof System, Teslarati reports.

Unprecedented Efficiency: Brownlee recounted his one-year journey with a Tesla Inc TSLA Roof in a YouTube video. Despite the system’s high cost and reduced ability to gather and store energy in winter, Brownlee projected that it would take less than a decade for the system to pay for itself.

In comparison, Tesla’s Solar Roof comes with a 25 years warranty period.

“I have not paid for electricity for over a year. I have a bunch of electrical appliances, computers, game consoles, TVs, air conditioning and I drive an electric car every day to and from work every single day and charge it at home; $0 bills,” Marques said in the video.
