ALBAWABA - In a significant development, Tesla has officially introduced the Powerwall 3 on its website, offering detailed insights into the product's features, with one notable exception—the specific battery chemistry employed.
Just last week, reports surfaced suggesting that Tesla had initiated installations of the Powerwall 3 across the United States, despite the product's absence from its official website.
Now, in a surprise move accompanied by a nightly software update, Tesla has chosen to lift the curtain on its latest home battery system on its official online platform.
Key Features of Powerwall 3:
For the sake of comparison with its predecessors, the Powerwall 2 and Powerwall+, here is a breakdown of the technical specifications that define the Powerwall 3:
Power Capacity: Tesla has opted to maintain the same energy capacity as its predecessor, clocking in at 13.5 kWh, consistent with the Powerwall.
However, the critical distinction lies in the power capacity, which now stands at a robust 11.5 kW.
Furthermore, Tesla has confirmed that the Powerwall 3 boasts an embedded solar energy inverter capable of accommodating up to six solar inputs.
Here's a concise elucidation of the fundamental divergence between the Tesla Powerwall 3 and its forerunner:
The Powerwall 3 stands as an all-encompassing solar energy and battery system meticulously crafted to cater to your home's energy demands. It not only yields more power per unit but is also engineered for seamless expansion to adapt to your current or future energy needs.
Its built-in solar energy inverter facilitates the direct integration of solar energy, ensuring optimal efficiency. Conversely, the Powerwall 2 can serve as an extension to a new solar energy system or augment existing solar energy setups with additional energy storage. Notably, it maintains compatibility with all major solar inverters and accommodates diverse system sizes.
While Tesla has already commenced installations, it has stipulated that Powerwall 3 will become accessible to consumers beginning in 2024.
