Toyota et al are great at press releases and compliance cars. The fundamental difference is Tesla sees these things as opportunities and the old guard sees them as annoyances they have to feign concern for. That's why Tesla is eating their lunch. Walmart was always just about to crush Amazon...

TSLA market cap is huge but it's a stretch to say that Tesla Motors is eating Toyota's lunch.
The point isn't the press release, it's that Toyota has spent decades doing what you say they don't do.

Toyota is not in any way shape or form operating at anywhere near the same level on the energy side as Tesla. When it comes to electric cars and technology, Tesla absolutely is eating Toyota's lunch despite Toyota having been in a better position a decade or more ago. The Model 3 took a bite out of Lexus' sales. Electric cars are the future. That cake is already baked.
Toyota Tsusho has engaged in the renewable energy business for more than 30 years, from development to operation of power stations, with a focus on wind power and solar power generation. The company plans to make use of its expertise in management of such business in this project in order to foster the transition to a low-carbon society.
