Elon Musk's Tesla launches bid to supply electricity to British households
Elon Musk's electric vehicle manufacturer and energy company Tesla is preparing to supply electricity to British households and businesses. The Texas-based company formally submitted its request for an electricity license to the British energy regulator Ofgem at the end of last month, according to a notice on the watchdog's website. If approved, the move could pave the way for Tesla to compete with the big firms that dominate the U.K. energy market from as soon as next year. The application, first reported by the Sunday Telegraph, came from Tesla Energy Ventures and was signed by Andrew Payne, who runs the firm's European energy operations. Tesla, which is best known as one of the world's leading EV manufacturers, also develops solar energy generation systems and battery energy storage products. Musk's company already has an electricity supplier in Texas, called Tesla Electric. The service, which was launched in 2022, allows customers to optimize energy consumption and pays them for selling excess energy back to the grid. Tesla's push for a license to supply electricity to British households comes as the company endures a protracted European sales slump. Data published last week by the U.K.'s Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) showed Tesla's new car sales dropped by nearly 60% to 987 units last month, down from 2,462 a year ago. In Germany, meanwhile, Tesla car sales fell to 1,110 units in July, down 55.1% from the same month in 2024. The latest sales figures underscored some of the challenges facing the company, which continues to face stiff competition, particularly from Chinese EV manufacturers, and reputational damage from Musk's incendiary rhetoric and relationship with U.S. President Donald Trump's administration.

Starbucks is asking customers in South Korea to stop bringing monitors, printers, and desk dividers into their stores
Starbucks South Korea has a problem — some of its customers are treating the outlets like private office spaces. The coffee chain said it posted a notice in its South Korean stores urging patrons not to bring bulky office equipment into the shops. The notice said items such as desktops, printers, extension cords, and desk partitions would not be allowed in stores. It also told customers to take their belongings with them when leaving their seats for long periods, and to let other customers share tables meant for multiple people. In response to a request for comment from Business Insider, a Starbucks representative said Starbucks Korea had updated its policy for its customers to "have a pleasant and accessible store experience." "While laptops and smaller personal devices are welcome, customers are asked to refrain from bringing desktop computers, printers, or other bulky items that may limit seating and impact the shared space," the representative said. She added that Starbucks Korea's new policy doesn't involve time limits for customers dining in stores. Pictures on social media show customers in South Korea putting up foldable partitions around their work areas in Starbucks stores, making the area inaccessible to other customers. Starbucks' new policy comes as a work-from-café trend, known in South Korea as "cagongjok," has swept the country. "Cagongjok" translates to people who work or study in cafés for prolonged periods. In Seoul, the trend is fueled by the large number of cafés on every street corner. South Korea is Starbucks' third-largest market after the US and China, with more than 2,000 outlets. At the end of 2024, its store count surpassed Japan. The Seattle-based coffee chain released its third-quarter 2025 earnings on July 29. It reported its sixth straight quarter of sales declines, with global same-store sales down 2% compared to a year ago. The company's stock has been down about 18% in the last six months but is flat compared to the start of the year.
