2 Backup The Powerwall may be used to provide backup power to a home or small business. The backup function can be tied to solar for multiple charge/recharge cycles during the outage, or offered as stand-alone, in which case it provides one full discharge during an outage. The Powerwall does not provide Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) level backup. Electrical Specifications Power, continuous & peak Energy DC Voltage DC Current, continuous & peak Insulation Coordination 3.3 kw 6.4 kwh 350V-450V 9.5 A Overvoltage Category III on a 277/480V system Self-consumption of solar energy The Powerwall may be used to increase the amount of solar energy a home directly consumes. This function commonly involves charging the battery during times when solar production exceeds local load, and discharging the battery when local loads exceed solar production. Optionally, this scenario can be designed to limit or prevent export of solar energy to the grid. Why Powerwall? Tesla home batteries maximize the usefulness of your solar panels and offer a variety of backup electricity supply solutions. You can even go off the grid. Solar electricity at night Powerwall stores electricity generated by solar panels during the day and makes it available to your home in the evening. This bridges the gap between peak solar and peak demand, allowing you to use your photons when you need them. Go net zero Combine solar panels and one or more Powerwall home batteries to power your home independently from the utility grid. A net zero energy rating means that your home produces as much energy as it consumes, but is still connected to the utility grid for periods of high demand. Emergency backup In the event of a utility outage, Powerwall can power your entire home or select appliances with an uninterrupted supply of electricity. When installed along with solar panels, Powerwall will allow your home to use solar generated electricity during a utility outage. * Protected from tools and particles greater than 2.5 millimeters * Protected form low pressure water jets from any direction

3 Zero Export Energy Solution Solar panels Panels convert sunlight into electricity that charges Powerwall and powers your home during the day. Without solar, Powerwall can reduce time of use power bills by strategically shifting energy consumption. Peak Shaving (also known as: Demand Reduction) In markets with residential and/or light commercial demand charges, the Powerwall and a compatible inverter may be used to shave, or reduce power demand present on the utility meter, by discharging energy which was stored at a time with less power demand. Powerwall The home battery is charged with electricity generated by solar panels or from the utility grid. Inverter The inverter converts direct current electricity from solar panels, the grid and Powerwall into the alternating current used by your home s lights, appliances and devices. All Powerwall installations require a compatible inverter. To maximize solar consumption, a meter is also installed to measure solar production and home energy use. Electrical Panel Electricity from the inverter is sent to your home s electrical panel. For applications without solar, and night time, electricity generated by the power company is sent from the electrical panel to the inverter to charge the Powerwall. Backup panel and switch Some backup installations may require a secondary electrical panel containing the critical appliances and outlets you wish to back up. An electrical switch automatically activates the backup panel during a power company outage. When installed with solar, this switch can keep your solar producing during an outage. Backup is an optional feature when installing to maximize solar or shift energy consumption. Intentional Islanding In conjunction with an island-capable inverter, the Powerwall may be used to intentionally island a residential solar installation during a grid outage, allowing solar to remain active, feeding Powerwall and backed up circuits. Grid Services In conjunction with a compatible inverter, the Powerwall may be used to provide services to the grid in response to signals sent from the utility, ISO, or other grid service provider.
