(Reuters) - Tesla Motors Inc will start taking orders for its solar roof tiles in April, Chief Executive Elon Musk said in a Tweet on Friday. The solar-powered roof shingles were unveiled in October last year to show the benefits of combining his electric car maker with solar installer SolarCity Corp . There was no detail on cost. (http://bit.ly/2n32HB8) Tesla has said previously the cost of the roof would be less than a conventional roof plus solar. By incorporating solar modules into rooftops, Tesla is hoping to succeed with a solar technology that to date has had little success. (Reporting by Nikhil Subba in Bengaluru; Editing by Sandra Maler)
