    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I haven't checked it lately, but a few months ago, PVoutput.org has detailed instructions on how to generate, upload and keep logs of your Powerwall data. I kept logs, polling every 5 minutes to 1/2 hour for weeks.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Duece24, I agree with Abasile. In the beginning, when Tesla was able to file your SGIP rebate, getting a Powerwall or two was absolutely a good value. It made total sense. With the rebate and the tax incentive, I was able to get two Powerwalls for less than the price of of a gasoline generator...

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I was working with another homeowner developer near my home. He had good communication and contacts with both SCE and Tesla. At first Tesla said they would supply the interval data for the both of us. He waited and waited for this data. I gave up and did it myself. I was able to complete the...

    Wayne, sorry, since I have gotten my check I don't keep up with this forum so much. I have a program that creates the data you need. PM me if you still need it.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Sorry to hear about your difficulties. I signed the contract August 30th, 2017. Installed Dec 22nd, 2017. Tesla sent me an email about 3 weeks ago asking me to sign papers for them to begin the SGIP application process. I don't need them to do this so I let them know. One of the big managers...

    Germany's car industry can't build its own batteries

    This is not my definition of "exploding" on to the market. But definitely a pleasant annoucement from Audi. Audi unveils an electric SUV and it's taking deposits now

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Exactly! It's like they changed the terms of the contract midstream. I hope it works out for you. I know you put a lot of work into this.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I heard a rumor they may be granting special circumstances to those 10 homeowners who were developer approved and in the process of completing their application. This might be a really good thing because you get in the step you were originally approved but Tesla will now take over the...

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Wayne, maybe you should just confirm with PG&E that they still consider you the developer. About a month ago Tesla and SGIP had a big confidential meeting and I guess this was the outcome. At least get Tesla to commit to you in whatever step you are in.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I will tell you from my own experience it took 7 months after install to get my rebate check. And I submitted documents immediately after they were requested or scheduled. I made some mistakes and Tesla made some mistakes with paperwork. When mistakes were made or SGIP wanted more clarity or...

    Germany's car industry can't build its own batteries

    Just wondering where is Sonnen Batterie??? Before Tesla, Sonnen was the top of the line solar energy storage solution if one had loads of money. I wonder why they are not getting in the EV game?

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Don't forget people who are nearing the expiration of their reservation can apply for extension.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I would love to get another powerwall dedicated to outdoors features, garden house and wine cellar. I would just feel so guilty getting an incentive for that:oops:. But yeah, if the incentive is really good, I might just try it.

    Germany's car industry can't build its own batteries

    I agree we need Germany to step up and provide some real competition. I have faith in Germany, I really hope it is only 3-5 years behind. I like Teslas but they are lot of money with no real luxury feel. With Germany on their backs I am sure that will change. Well, just my opinion.

    Germany's car industry can't build its own batteries

    If anyone can work it out...the Germans will. They always do:)
