"I meant shipping. "On the market today" generally means something you can buy, not something that has only been announced." But if Powerwall isn't available for another 3 months, why do you need the inverter to be shipping today?
"This sub thread all started when I said of ecarfan: "I wish you could have asked about where does the software intelligence run? In the Powerwall or in the inverter?" This Luddite assumes that the only intelligence in the Powerwall will run thermal management and balancing, while the inverter controls grid/home interaction... but I'm probably wrong. Oh looky, "Powerwall consists of Tesla’s lithium-ion battery pack, liquid thermal control system and software that receives dispatch commands from a solar inverter.", from the Tesla Press Kit.
"Who is going to come out with a compatible inverter first?" SolarEdge in USA and Fronius in Europe were the first to announce.
"When will we be able to buy a Powerwall?" 3-4 months was announced at the TE presentation (I THINK it was the presentation). Press Kit says late summer, but they did say that they would prioritize deliveries to areas that PW makes more economical sense (e.g. Hawaii).
But hey, I'm just an old Luddite tryin' to be helpful...
Happy Tuesday!
PS: NO sarcasm meant... self deprecation, yes, sarcasm, no....
