For a few months, my neighbors have had the option in their Tesla App to add themselves to a VPP group (not sure if it is live, none of them have tested it yet), similar to what is reported here:
I don't have this option, even though I'm on the same utility as them. The only differences I know of between their setup and mine are:
1) Gateway 2.0 (I'm on GW 1)
2) Powerwall 2.1 (I'm on 2.0)
Would appreciate anyone that is able to see the VPP option in their phones to contribute with their setup specs.
Thanks!
