A Powerful Choice of Battery Backup

A Powerful Choice of Battery Backup

Tesla is redefining home energy storage once again! If you’re searching for the ultimate backup solution—or just love groundbreaking technology—the Tesla Powerwall 3 is worth your attention. Engineered for reliability and packed with advanced features, this battery is built to keep your home powered through anything.

Here’s what makes this third-generation powerhouse a great option for your home’s energy needs:

Robust Product Design
The long-lasting and powerful lithium ion phosphate (LFP) battery cells in the Tesla Powerwall 3 have a maximum continuous output of 11.5 kW. That’s double what the Powerwall 2 offered—and a solid option in terms of an energy storage system (ESS).

New Features
Our favorite new feature is the Tesla meter collar, or backup switch. This smart device connects directly to your electric meter and is designed to flawlessly disconnect your home from the grid during an outage. It seamlessly integrates and enhances your daily energy usage.

Cash Savings
Pairing the Powerwall 3 with your solar energy system unlocks big savings and a strong return on your investment. Plus, its customizable settings optimize energy use, helping you rely less on PG&E—all at a competitive price!

To top things off, the Tesla Powerwall 3 is easier than ever to install, with an integrated hybrid inverter that merges effortlessly with your existing solar panel ecosystem. If you’d like to upgrade your system to include this or another ESS, contact us for more information.

Take a Closer Look

We recently installed a Tesla Powerwall in a home in Ripon, California—and it’s helping to deliver clean, reliable energy for one of our solar families. Watch this Instagram reel to see the installation process in action. Thanks to our amazing team for making this project a success!

The Benefits of a Battery Backup

battery backup or energy storage system (ESS), like the Tesla Powerwall 3, can be a great asset for your home or business. In fact, you can determine which specific benefits to capitalize on by customizing your setup.

Here are three common ways you can use a battery backup—and what it can do for you:

  1. Backup Electricity: It’s in the name! A battery backup provides emergency power during a grid outage.
  2. Peak Rate Optimization: Set it to discharge during PG&E’s peak rate hours so you don’t use grid power when it’s most expensive. This is a great way to save money.
  3. Self-Consumption: Your solar energy system produces energy, then your battery stores it and reuses it throughout the day to support your needs.
