Tesla asks Senate to Protect its growing Energy Business

Electrical & Electronics, Engineering /

Tesla’s success is partly rooted in government support, including a 2009 Department of Energy loan guarantee and the sale of regulatory credits to other carmakers, which have accounted for a third of its $32 billion in profits since 2012. Now, the company’s energy division — one of the few strong performers as EV demand declines
