Tesla Solar Panels & Powerwalls: November 2023 Recap
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 жов 2024
- The November 2023 update is here for our Tesla 12.24 kW Solar Panel and 3 Powerwall system! With solar production way down in the winter, I talk about what you can do to use your Powerwalls to their best ability: saving you money while providing you backup protection! And we now have 3 years worth of data to look over! Enjoy!

Holy smokes ...we pay only 12c per KWh here in Virginia peak, and 5c off peak (11pm -7am).
Yeah electricity costs here are ridiculous with PG&E. It only took two $700-800 sunmer bills for us to sign up for solar, lol
@@TheMahkustwo months behind on updates now 😮
@@ace00007 December just ended a week ago! Busy times with a baby in the house! Finished the data editing a couple days ago, now to find time to film and edit. Also working on a 2023 year in review. Going as fast as I can :)
@@TheMahkus gotcha. Looking forward to it
Great post. I recently installed a 11.4 kw Tesla system. Just turned on beginning of Dec. I don’t see my rate plan in the app with APS here in Az. So I entered it manually. I get error when it saves, and the times it did save. It’s not there again if I wanted to edit it. Is this normal?
Tesla app has been really buggy as of late. That doesn't sound like it's functioning normally.
@@TheMahkus Might be a good vid subject, putting your plan into the App
If your state has net-metering, I still don't see any advantage in using the powerwalls for anything except backup. My excess solar gets credited back to the grid for use later. I don't have to worry about having enough solar to recharge the powerwalls the next day.
Non-bypassable charges. We pay about a nickel per kWh for NBCs. We use 15,000 kWh per year, so that's $750 in additional fees if we just keep the Powerwalls full and use the grid. We also have east facing panels which don't produce during peak times so it would open us up to those ridiculously expensive rates!
Fewer and fewer locations are doing 1 to 1 net metering and of course there’s lots of places with pricey peak rates.
This doesnt work in places like CA where peak rates are when the sun is going down
can't hear it
I'll remember to raise the volume for garage recordings for next time, thanks!
