$500 Rebate for Powerwalls until October 31

[Vines]

Tesla sent out messages to certified installers that any installed and registered (not PTO or final inspection) powerwall between now and Oct 31 will be eligible for a $500 rebate per unit direct from Tesla.

A Nice little chunk of change for what people already bought is nice.

Yep. Put my order in. It was weird because I had an existing PW order that was constantly in a "Waiting to be available in your location" or something like that. I had to set up a whole new order and cancel the old one. Anywho. Powerwall #3 hopefully coming soon!

Wasn't just sent to installers. Got this yesterday afternoon.

I started down this path, but the installation cost as much as the powerwall. I already have four, but was curious what it would cost.

Got the email. Doesn’t let me order and ship directly to my house. Still have to go through installer.

So if you buy direct from Tesla you get the rebate, but for third party installers the rebate is to them only?

Yeah if Tesla has a typical reseller agreement if Tesla offers the incentive direct to a customer, then the incentive should be made available to the reseller as well. And it'd be up to the discretion of the reseller to manage how the rebate is messaged.

Below are prices in California excluding the rebate. Price of solar went up since I last checked in March 2023.

Previously prices are below.

My system hasn't been installed yet. I just received notice of permits and installation first week in October. Regarding powerwall rebates, it states they have to be installed, registered and connected to the internet before Oct 31 2023. From what I hear, it could take months before approval or activation of my system after installation. In other words, it won't be connected by Oct 31? Can I connect Powerwalls to internet and register them even though my system hasn't been approved or passed inspection? They really cut it close. Should have been installed by July. Just wanna make sure I get the rebates. Thanks people. I've even thought of trying to deduct one powerwall, but I doubt they would do that now.

Generally the Powerwalls are registered, installed and connected to the internet before PTO (permission to operate). They just are configured not to export to the grid until then. It may be worth double-checking with your installers that they are going to do this.

Just got my Tesla Solar + PW installed yesterday and when I follow the Rebate steps on their page, it quickly ends when you realize that there's no "Rebate" section under the "Support" in your app. Time to figure this out and when I do, I will share the process to actually process your rebate request. Wish me luck.

Happened same to me, called to Tesla Customer Service, and after registering my PW2, withing hours my app showed the Rebate Notification in the Support section.

 

[HialeahTEZLA]

Finally showing in the app for me too!

 

[hobapolis]

Got my check. Took about 5 weeks after submitting in app.

What do they mean by "registered." With whom? After installation? Mine may not be completed by end of October.
