    First PowerWall2 installed in Houston TX.

    Yes I'm trying for SGIP but was planning on claiming only 80% of the 30% ITC credit (24% total credit) so that I could charge 20% from grid at night and the rest from solar. But since I'm forced to charge from solar only I'll be planning on claiming the full 30% ITC.

    First PowerWall2 installed in Houston TX.

    Question for people with PW2 installed with solar system: Are you guys able to charge from the Grid at night or only from what your solar system produces? Tesla is restricting me from charging only from solar with my pending 2 PW2 order which is disappointing since I won't be able to take...

    New solar and Powerwall installation

    Based on the wording of the document that "recapture can apply in unvested years if the percentage of renewable energy charging declines," then that implies that the ITC credit can be claimed fully early on.

    New solar and Powerwall installation

    The ITC credit will be vested out over a period of 5 years. So you get to claim 1/5th of the 30% ITC each year you qualify for the charge from renewable requirement. After 5 years, you can charge however you like, i.e. 100% from grid.

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I'm starting to fill-out the SGIP application beginning with the RRF and was wondering what people used for the Energy Efficiency Audit documentation requirement. Did you higher an independent licensed contractor to perform the audit or did your utilities offer a free service of this kind or...

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    I'm totally fine with losing out on excess solar power generated when there's an outage because there aren't that many in my area. Also I don't think I'd be able to fully charge 2 PW2s from solar power based on my load usage and power generated from the non-optimal panel direction (most of them...

    Powerwall 2: SGIP/Incentives

    Been reading thru most of this thread during the past day or so. I recently got a 9.9kW solar panel system installed and was looking to get a single PW2 installed to time-shift load for the peak hours of the TOU rates. I purchased a PW2 from Tesla's site and sent them some initial docs like...
