Powerwall
Home energy independence

Powerwall is Tesla's residential battery storage system providing 13.5 kWh of usable capacity per unit, designed to store solar energy, provide backup power during outages, and reduce grid electricity costs through time-of-use optimization. It integrates with Tesla Solar and third-party solar installations and is monitored via the Tesla app.

Use Cases
Homeowners with solar panels storing excess daytime generation for evening use to eliminate grid electricity billsHouseholds in outage-prone regions using Powerwall as whole-home backup when the grid goes down for multiple daysEV owners charging their Model Y overnight from stored Powerwall solar energy rather than drawing grid power at peak rates
