Submission + - Tesla and Walmart settle solar panel lawsuit.

Rei writes: Just days ago, Slashdot reported on a lawsuit from Walmart against Tesla over fires in several of its 240 industrial-scale rooftop solar systems installed by Solar City a decade ago. A day later, Tesla's response was published, arguing that Walmart has been trying to exploit the fires to get Tesla to cover the liability for all fires at Walmart stores (which occur once every few weeks) and to get a wide variety of other concessions to their contract, while holding solar systems that passed Walmart's own inspection regimen hostage in order to do so.

Today, it appears that the two parties have made up — Tesla and Walmart "are looking to address all issues surrounding the solar installations at Walmart stores" and "re-energizing Tesla solar installations at Walmart stores, once all parties are certain that all concerns have been addressed. Above all else, both companies want each and every system to operate reliably, efficiently, and safely."
