    First Powershare home installation

    My existing 200A GW2 is fully subscribed with a 200A subpanel of backup loads. Moving a 60A circuit for Tesla UWC from non-backed-up loads on main panel side seems like something that wouldn't fly.

    Why is Tesla installing a meter for SRECs and does it effect my NEM agreement?

    Interesting. My purchase contract has no Schedule B. Surely that's an error on Tesla's end?

    Why is Tesla installing a meter for SRECs and does it effect my NEM agreement?

    Where would I see this in the purchase agreement contract? Tesla wants to come and install an SREC meter on my system but I don't see that agreed to anywhere in my signed documentation.

    Why is Tesla installing a meter for SRECs and does it effect my NEM agreement?

    @sorka did they ever come back to install the SREC meter on your system? They scheduled me for this "mandatory maintenance" out of the blue on my 3 year old system in San Jose, CA.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Yes. Bug on GitHub stated 1.28.4 does not work at all with Docker 19 (old release). Docker 20 or newer is needed. Confirmed that fixed my issue.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Upgrading from 1.28.3 to 1.28.4 on GCP failed for me with 404 page not found on the Home page (Grafana still worked). Downgrading back to 1.28.3 on my GCP instance recovered normal operation.

    Discussion: Powershare [V2X feature currently announced for Cybertruck]

    I was hoping Tesla would support this upgrading to a new partial backup topology (in red) with an additional Gateway V3 and home PowerSharing to a non-Powerwall backed wall connector, but alas it seems they won't or can't...

    First Powershare home installation

    Has there been anyone with an existing "partial home" Powerwall backup setup getting PowerShare installed? Tesla won't touch my partial home backup setup for PowerShare with a 10-foot pole, as my existing Tesla wall charger is not behind the V2 Gateway & Powerwalls. I'm guessing because they'd...

    Discussion: Powershare [V2X feature currently announced for Cybertruck]

    So I got an e-mail today, they're only giving me a $700 Tesla Shop credit with the Foundation Series AWD order. I have existing Powerwalls at home but my Tesla wall charger is not behind the Powerwalls. So Tesla doesn't want to do anything to enable PowerShare... just give me a $700 store credit...

    Tesla Virtual Power Plant in CA

    1099-MISC is only required if the income is over $600. I doubt very many if any folks on VPP got paid out that high, would need a huge system of PWs contributing.

    Discussion: Powerwall 3 [Speculation / Discussion etc]

    It all depends on how the grid fails, voltage and frequency-wise. Most of my outages I've never had to reset anything in the house or have anything shutoff. But there have been 1 or 2, notably once when a nearby transformer exploded, where the Powerwalls' cutover was apparently too slow and some...

    Cybertruck deliveries

    It's still there and I'm not happy about it...

    Discussion: Powershare [V2X feature currently announced for Cybertruck]

    Tesla is reimbursing Founders Series owners 6 months of free SuperCharging (for AWD) or 1 year free SuperCharging (for Cyberbest) if they've deemed their current incantation of Powershare not feasible where you want to install it.

    Cybertruck deliveries

    I got low 7XX VIN assigned.
