Tesla solar panels also caught fire on an Amazon warehouse, the retail giant said in the wake of Walmart's lawsuit

Amazon says Tesla solar panels on the roof of one of its warehouses sparked a fire in 2018, adding to the scrutiny of the company's green energy unit following Walmart's damning suit filed last week.

The e-commerce giant told Bloomberg in an emailed statement Friday that an energy system at its Redlands, California warehouse, west of Los Angeles, in June 2018. An Amazon representative declined to comment publicly for this story, but confirmed the company has no additional projects planned with Tesla.

Last week, Walmart slammed Tesla with a lawsuit claiming the company's solar panels were responsible for fires at seven stores, forcing the retailer to de-energize all 240 locations where panels had been installed.

"To this day, Tesla has not provided Walmart with the complete set of final "root cause" analyses needed to identify the precise defects in its systems that caused all of the fires," Walmart said in its complaint.

Tesla just got their ICC-ES ESR for the solar panels compliance with International Building Code. Might need to re-evaluate those things

To be fair, Musk put in most or all of his net worth (his PayPal proceeds) into SpaceX and supposedly owns >50% of the company. Shooters shoot.
