Tesla is currently looking for electricians who can work on its solar and battery business.
The recent job posting from the EV automaker suggests that Elon Musk and his team is on the hunt for a skilled worker who can help the company in installing PV solar systems in households.
Tesla is Hiring Skilled Electricians For Its Solar Business
Tesla wants to take advantage of its solar business momentum by hiring more electricians in select areas in California.
The 30% increase in tax credit in 2022 suggests that Tesla should revamp its business model if it wants to earn more profit from investors and homeowners.
Although the solar and battery business of the company is only second to EV manufacturing, many people are still taking advantage of this service especially those who want to save electricity.
According to a report by Electrek on Wednesday, March 29, investing in solar roofs is considered a "smart investment" for homeowners thanks to the return of the 30% federal tax credit.
To ensure growth and maintain the quality of its solar power among users, Tesla wants to hire a lot of licensed electricians who will work in California.
As a reference, California is on the priority list of the automaker. Homeowners benefit from solar power by not only saving tons of energy and money from expensive electricity fees, but also they can sell the surplus solar power.

Highest Deployment For Tesla Energy Storage Business
Back in January 2023, Tesla said that the fiscal 2022 recorded the "highest level of deployment" on its energy storage business, TechCrunch reported.
The Q4 2022 achieved 2.5 GWh which was a great increase from the third-quarter performance of 2.1 GWh. The company added that the total deployments last year managed to reach 348 megawatts.
Two weeks ago, Teslarati reported that Tesla finally launched the new Powerwall Direct program. If you are one of the customers who want to get Powerwall online, you should first reach out to a Certified Installer to quote the installation and design before you place the order.
