I expect to order my MY next year after Vermont's "mud season" is over. Later that year (SP willing) I'll work with TE to get solar panels and one or two PowerWalls. Ideally I would like the MY to be able to use some of the energy from the panels on good days, as well as provide further backup capacity for the house during winters.
When TE decides it's ready to implement full V2G with AutoTrader, I'd like that to work in my setup as well.
Does anyone have information/insight into whether the charging hardware in Model Y is ready to provide home backup and/or eventual be able to share it's energy with the grid once it gets any needed OTA software updates?
My guess would be it does, if we assume that in this scenario it will be the solar panel and Powerwall hardware and software in the house that will handle interaction with grid to enable V2G in the future, not the EV. I would think as long as MY hardware has the ability to send power in both directions it should not require after manufacture hardware upgrades to fit into V2G architecture. If anyone knows for certain, any links to sources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
