Thanks for an awesome reply, i will have to talk to my advisor about this.
you shouldn't be charged any tax. According to Arizona Revised Statues (ARS) 42-5001 line 20 "20. "Solar energy device" means a system or series of mechanisms that are designed primarily to provide heating, to provide cooling, to produce electrical power, to produce mechanical power, to provide solar daylighting or to provide any combination of the foregoing by means of collecting and transferring solar generated energy into such uses either by active or passive means, including wind generator systems that produce electricity. Solar energy systems may also have the capability of storing solar energy for future use. Passive systems shall clearly be designed as a solar energy device, such as a trombe wall, and not merely as a part of a normal structure, such as a window."
When I talked to my adviser they tried to say it was on the gateway I was being charged tax (I don't believe that, I was being charged more in tax than my father who got the large system and 3 PW, and I got the extra large system with 3 PWs) I was having to pay over $1,500 in taxes so I'm not sure where the discrepancy is especially if youre only being charged $600. I sent this to them and said I would not being paying this and highly recommended them to get their legal team involved. They ended up just discounting the installation of the system to cover the taxes because their system can't take taxes off completely I guess.

Anyone have a lot of issues actually getting PTO?
For 2 weeks SRP was waiting for Tesla to provide the cert. in leiu of inspection, since my municipality didn't requrie one. I had to call tesla over and over to get them to send it. They finally received it, and SRP by end of the day sent out the email that the contractor can now schedule commissioning by going to the SRP scheduling portal. It's been over a week and still nothing. today my advisor said she's "checking with the utilities team if there's any updates from SRP"...I explicitly told her last week that "here's SRPs update, they have nothing more to do. The next action item is from Tesla. Can you confirm", and...astoundingly, she couldn't "confirm". She couldn't "see" that part of the process in the account. Which leads me to wonder, what is the point of a project advisor if they cannot at a minimum, at any given time, communicate the current status, and the next step?
In any case, venting a bit here. I've tried calling in numerous times, even trying to escalate, but seem to just get the runaround, and eventually the ship me back to my advisor, who appears to be useless. Any suggestions for getting escalation?
Is this a little ridiculous, or should I calm down here?
Unfortunately, I think the answer is both.
Dual peak times are problem for the TEG. It only does one peak time. I am in Tucson and we now have 6 to 9 am and 6 to 9 pm peak. With 2 PWs I have set my peak time from 6 am to 6 pm and it seems to be doing OK. Almost no peak time usage. Good Luck.I guess I'll hurry up and wait. Bummed I missed all of the summer months, was hoping to see performance before I would have to worry about the dual peak times of winter periods.
I was wondering when morning will be part of peak usage. Here it is.Dual peak times are problem for the TEG. It only does one peak time. I am in Tucson and we now have 6 to 9 am and 6 to 9 pm peak. With 2 PWs I have set my peak time from 6 am to 6 pm and it seems to be doing OK. Almost no peak time usage. Good Luck.
And...now someone else that I talked with on the phone emailed me stating it would be 22 more business days for pto (yet they haven't actually scheduled a date for the final commissioning with srp).
Timeline this far
Ordered 7/13
Loan app completed 7/21
Lender DocuSign 7/23
Project advisor assigned 8/5
Sales tax issue corrected 8/11
Srp design approved 8/25
Install scheduled for 9/9 on 8/27
Inspection completed 9/10 (for powerwall only)
Design changes submitted 9/23 and approved 9/25
Multiple calls to tesla to get the CILC sent to SRP. Finally sent/approved 10/2 & 10/3.
Calls to get tesla to schedule commissioning with SRP 10/4-10/13 (unresolved)
10/13 - received email that it would be "22 days to get PTO" (which seems like an odd and long timeframe). This would make it 11/12.
Order to install was 58 days. (7/13 to 9/9)
Install to PTO is looking like 64 days. (9/9 to 11/12)
Is this a little ridiculous, or should I calm down here?
Can any of you DM me a phone number for a contact who has been able to remove sales tax? I have called in several times and emailed a couple different people. Had a few "tickets" opened, where I was supposed to receive a call back within a few days. Crickets...absolutely no responses to anything. Would love to speak to an advisor who has actually dealt with this and can help review and possibly refund the $1346 in sales tax I paid.
I'm interested. What would this accomplish? Can you summarize how this benefits?
