While I could, and do have contacts there it's not the direction we are taking as a company, we are still all-in Tesla. Generator integration would be nice, but it's not super critical to most of our clients. The ESS systems we sell are usually large enough to not need the generator assuming reasonable off-grid usage.Can you guys contact Enphase as a potential partner and get the details of their test?
I just hope that we can start putting the units within 3' of each other soon. It's a large challenge to find about 13' of exterior wall, without doors or windows, and where the customer would care to install ESS.
Interior locations are possible but the heat detector issue is not solved yet either. At least the OSFM did release the official guidance regarding R327.7, indicating there are no heat alarms that are listed for an unconditioned garage. Unfortunately, that guidance doesn't give any real concrete solutions in the meantime.
On the bright side, it looks like the ICC will accept our proposal for the IFC, so the bollards required in Santa Clara will become reasonable size...sometime in 2025
