If I have paid for something that is on my roof, I will be taking advantage of the tax credit. Waiting for PTO should have no impact on the ability to take advantage of the credit.
Doesn't Tesla wait until PTO to give you the final bill?

Similarly, it would be odd to wait for DMV registration on an EV that I have purchased and taken delivery of to take advantage of the EV tax credit.

Nope, you get the final bill shortly after installation, and in fact tesla will not even apply for PTO until you pay in full.
Good to know. So first bill is due when installation starts, and second bill is due when installation is completed?

For us, there were small deposits, but it was 50% due at start of installation and 50% due after it passed inspection (by the county, in our case.)Good to know. So first bill is due when installation starts, and second bill is due when installation is completed?
That's kind of where I am with this, but technically until it's producing power, it's just a bunch of shiny glass and boxes that make beep beep noises.
Good news, since it doesn't really matter what we think during an audit, is it's installed date. https://www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2020/01/f70/Guide to Federal Tax Credit for Residential Solar PV.pdf, top of the right column.
As of today I’ve officially generated my first megawatt hour of power.
You should plan a celebration for 1.21 GWh.
2. When I swap to the "Solar" section of the app by swiping from right to left to move to that section of the tesla app
That’s weird. I don’t have a separate “Solar” section of the App. I only have two things that I can swipe to in my app... my car and my Solar/Powerwall (which is just one section). Perhaps it’s because my solar and powerwalls were installed at the same time and yours weren’t?
@BrettS are you GW1? If so are there lugs to run a sub panel from? I am pending my solar install date (waiting for utility permits) and need a sub panel in a structure that will house my battery walls and inverters. I don't want to pay to trench twice if I can just run solar install to the panel. Moreover I don't want to cause any unnecessary complications on my solar install.
