Solectrac CEO, Mani Iyer took the time to share his passion about electric tractors with me. In this interview we talked about
reported that Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said that he expects the semiconductor shortage to extend through the rest of 2022 as the industry awaits additional production to come online, a years-long process. I was curious as to how the constraints might affect Solectrac and asked Mani. He told me, “I think the supply chain has been a constraint and Covid did not help. They’re catching up fast. It is only a matter of time when the supply chain will be caught up.
The tractors, Mani explained, can also be powered by wind or solar. And they can feed the grid similar to how a virtual power plant works. With Tesla, customers who have Powerwalls can supply energy back to the grid. Switching from diesel tractors to electric is also easy and Mani explained that the accessories that are used on diesel tractors can be used on electric ones. The only difference is that Solectrac tractors don’t have the need for fossil fuels.I was curious to know if Solectrac had plans for autonomous or robo tractors in the future. Mani said that eventually, yes, but perhaps autonomous isn’t the best thing for all farmers.
“When it comes to hobby farmers, lifestyle farmers, organic farmers, small vegetable farmers, they are small in nature. They want to use the tractor and experience it. It is not driving an on-road vehicle on the road. This had a lot of attachments. You have got many attachments on the three-point hitch behind the tractor and then you have the loader in the front which has to be moving materials.
