The Tesla’s home battery, which was announced several months ago, was finally represented by the public. Stationary battery offers a place for storing 10kW of energy at a relatively modest price – $ 3500. Smaller 7kW units available for $ 3000. If necessary, homeowners will be able to use several batteries at once.
Tesla Powerwall batteries are charged through the solar panels during the day, and then they can be used to store energy and nutrition at night and during electricity outages due to storms, natural disasters and other natural cataclysms.
Tesla Powerwall is a lithium-ion battery designed to store energy in residential buildings for backup nutrition and its own energy consumption generated by solar batteries.
Blocks can operate in a cold climate in the temperature range from -20 ° C to 43 ° C.
Representatives of the company say that the most important aspect is the lack of need to acquire an additional room for installing the battery. Tesla device can be put in the garage, hang on the wall or even outdoors outside the house.
For private houses are offered batteries with a capacity of 10kW, and for large utilities, the battery pack can be used for a capacity in 100kW.
