So it’s not just Tesla Energy that you felt was giving you problems then. How much more was going with Sunrun costing you?
I wonder if all the wildfire damage, rebuilding of homes and reworking of PG&E’s lines to reduce areas of outages has the essential people tied up so you’re job is low priority since you have power at least.
On the PV side, Sunrun as a customized solution wasn't much more expensive than Tesla's cookie-cutter approach. Sunrun is paying for the 200A service work and new MSP (assuming PG&E ever approves the work). They're also handling the change to my sub-panel for my ACs that Tesla would have charged more for.
There were also some things that Sunrun would do that Tesla wouldn't. Sunrun didn't charge anything extra for my request for the better racking method using a three-course-method instead of tile hooks. Tesla also wouldn't commit to me getting a TEG2 (they said I'd get whatever their engineer assigned).
Sunrun came in at $3.00 / watt (before any tax incentives). I can't tell where Tesla would have landed after factoring in the costs they added for the 200A MSP and possible sub panel stuff since my order stalled/died with them before I got a full quote.
Yeah, there are lots of possible excuses for why a "slam dunk" suddenly became a "dunno what is going on" situation. I know 2020 is rough for everybody. But I also know I'm being dealt zero slack at work even with the challenging environment. And I'm delivering on all my targets/goals in spite of everything. Plus I'm spending more time posting on TMC. So, I get frustrated hearing excuses from Sunrun and PG&E... I want to hear what it'll take to get things done and achieve forward progress.
