I'm glad I found this very timely discussion. We are finalizing plans for a middle-sized remote home with 7kW on a solar carport, and a Powerwall 2 to permit us to weather frequent and sometimes lengthy grid outrages. But the location (with a high forested horizon and frequent clouds) limits solar production during the winter months when outages occur. So I'm curious about how to integrate a 7,500-Watt (LP) Standby Generator with Automatic Transfer Switch. The unit will run at 50% output, well within the charging capacity of a single PW2.
I understand that partial solution is being piloted with ten folks, but the other half of my "want" is for the propane-powered generator to recharge the Powerwall 2. Is anyone else pursuing that capability with Tesla?
