Tesla, the popular electric car manufacturer, has been designing solar roof tiles, and they are now available to consumers in California! These branded panels, when installed, absorb power from the sun and convert it into electricity for homes.
Tesla Powerwall and Panels
These batteries are large devices that can be mounted on the interior or exterior of wall surfaces, and store energy coming in from the solar panels.
The waiting period of the operation may take awhile was probably due to the fact that this solar power can also be hooked up to the main state power grid so that owners can sell the spare energy. This process can be done via the Tesla app, which enables users to set the amount of power (in watts) that their houses require. Also, the amount of wattage that goes into the Powerwall and the grid can be set.
In addition, users may be able to monitor the amount of charge the Powerwall has remaining. If it is fully loaded, owners can direct that extra energy to the grid.
