    PG&E NEM 2 with EVA rate plan with powerwall question charging from grid

    My question comes from not knowing the ins and outs of NEM and the confusing PGE statement if you have paired storage. Long story short I have the option to charge my powerwall from the grid during off peak hours, should I? I usually have a yearly true-up around $500 I have a 5kW solar system...

    Should I get Powerwalls if I am on an essential "circuit/block"?

    I am in the Bay Area (PG&E) and have an order for a 9.6 kW solar + 2 PW in-progress. However, I recently discovered that I am in PG&E's special outage block #50. This means that I am "generally exempt from rotating outages" because "essential services such as hospitals and police and fire...

    PG&E is finally dropping the NGOM requirement for my 3 Powerwalls setup

    After 7 months of back and forth hassles, PG&E emailed me and said that they're no longer going to require a NGOM to be installed for my 3 Powerwalls installation that was completed last Dec. Now I can finally get my PTO, and therefore my SGIP! Sounds like confirmation about Tesla's CRD...

    Here’s hoping Gov. Newsome makes getting solar & battery back up easier

    I've read on here that upcoming Calif legislation or PG&E rules are coming down in 2020 that will make installing solar and battery back up more restrictive and that their new time scheduling really hurts those with solar. We haven’t been ready to make that move to solar yet but with more...

    Which PG&E rate plan should I choose after going solar?
