Tesla has officially announced the third generation of its Powerwall home energy storage system, which brings several improvements and a few changes.<\/p>\n
The Powerwall 3 is a fully integrated solar and battery system, designed for home installations. The latest version has the same energy capacity as the Powerwall 2 – 13.5 kilowatt-hours – but its continuous power output increased by several kilowatts to 11.5 kilowatts (both on-grid and backup power), compared to the Powerwall 2 (Powerwall 2 with an inverter). These two numbers are in line with the previous report from an initial installation.<\/p>\n
An interesting thing is that the Powerwall 3 is flood resistant to over 2 feet – “Flood and dust resistance”<\/em>, compared to “Water and dust resistance”<\/em> in P2\/P+.<\/p>\n Tesla explains that the new Powerwall can supply more power with a single unit and is designed for easy expansion (up to 40.5 kWh per unit). The integrated solar inverter can accept six solar inputs (compared to four in the Powerwall+). Its solar-to-grid efficiency remains at 97.5 percent, while the warranty remains the same at 10 years.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tesla Powerwall 2 and Powerwall 3<\/p>\n The weight of the P3 is 287 pounds, compared to 251.3 pounds in the case of Powerwall 2, although we should probably compare it to the Powerwall+, which weighs 343.9 pounds. That’s a 16.5 percent reduction, which makes us wonder whether the speculation about the prismatic LFP battery replacing cylindrical (2170-type) NCM is still valid or maybe premature. The size of the P3 is noticeably smaller than before (especially compared to P+).<\/p>\n An important note is that the Powerwall 3 is not directly compatible with the Powerwall 2\/Powerwall+, and can’t be added to Powerwall 2 or Powerwall+ installations: “Powerwall 3 can be added to other Powerwall 3 batteries and cannot be added to Powerwall 2 or Powerwall+ batteries. Powerwall 3 is not compatible with other solar inverters.”<\/em><\/p>\n According to Tesla, the Powerwall 3 will be available to customers starting in 2024. Orders are not being accepted yet but there is an option to sign up for updates.<\/p>\n It will be very interesting to see whether Tesla will be able to improve its margins on the new Powerwalls and maybe reduce prices a bit.<\/p>\n Tesla has officially announced the third generation of its Powerwall home energy storage system, which brings several improvements and a few changes.
