    Too big of a system?

    You might also want to check with how big of a system your local utility approves. I have seen some utilities where they have mandated no more than 110% of your last 12 month bill and some utilities saying go as big as you want with payback in peanuts credits.

    Tesla Solar Panel - Install Day Question - Powerwall 2 and 2+

    I had a 5 kw and added a 6kw with three powerwalls. That is the max allowed at 110% by the local utility (SMUD) & based on annual bill, total of 28 panels. Day 1 installs are done and they spread the powerwalls out. I have a three car tandem so they spread them across the walls. They will be...

    Hello All, Tesla energy is here installing three powerwalls and solar panels today. My design had three powerwalls. Today when they arrived, they seem to have 1- Powerwall 2+ and 2- Powerwall 2’s. Is this of any concern or should I raise the issue or let it go?

    Discussion: Is PTO from a utility actually required by rule / law?

    Yes they do depending on their new three tier plans and incentives…..something to the effect like Option 1: Great Job, $300, Option2: You can send excess at peanuts in return. Option 3: They will pull from the battery on demand during peak power usage.

    Hello All, First time posting here, so please bear with me…. Wanted to know if anyone from NorCal - Sacramento wait times on Tesla Solar Panel + 3 Powerwall are. Its unfortunate that SMUD (Utility provider) doesn’t allow more than 110% of last 12 months…..CPUC 3.0 doesn’t apply for this...
