Store excess daytime solar
Capture available solar energy that your home is not using right away and save it for later.
Store solar energy for later, manage when you use grid power, and plan backup for the parts of home that matter most to you.
Store available daytime production for evening use, while keeping a backup reserve for the unexpected.
Capture available solar energy that your home is not using right away and save it for later.
Use stored energy as solar production falls and your household continues to need power.
Set aside battery capacity to support covered loads during outages, based on your system design.
A properly configured home battery can respond when grid power goes out. It runs without a gasoline engine and can support the circuits included in your backup design.
Transition time, supported loads, upkeep and runtime vary by equipment and installation.
Tesla Powerwall 3 is one example of a compact, weather-resistant battery with integrated solar and backup controls. A site review can show whether it suits your home and which loads it could support.
*Continuous output depends on configuration. Figures from Tesla's Powerwall 3 specifications. Availability and final system design must be confirmed.
View Full Battery SpecsBattery settings can respond to your energy habits and, where applicable, your utility's time-of-use prices.
On an eligible time-of-use plan, stored energy may reduce grid use during higher-priced hours.
Fill the battery with available solar, or use permitted lower-rate grid charging where it fits your plan.
Compatible software can balance daily energy use with the backup reserve you choose.
If a local program is available, ask how participation, payments and backup reserves work.
Savings and program eligibility are not guaranteed. They depend on your utility tariff, solar production, energy use, battery settings and local program rules.
Plan around the equipment your household relies on, then size the system for the loads and runtime you need.
Prioritize selected circuits so stored energy goes to the things you need first.
With a suitable design, expanded storage may support more of your usual home routine.
*Critical medical needs require an independent backup plan. Covered loads and runtime depend on the final design and actual energy use.
Battery capacity can be reviewed as your family, home and energy use change.
Review charging demand alongside your solar, utility connection and backup goals before choosing a battery size or expansion path.
New heat pumps, additions or appliances can change your energy needs. Compatible battery expansions may offer more storage capacity later.
