By capturing solar energy during the day and storing the excess energy that is generated, you can then utilise the energy when it’s needed most which will help to significantly reduce your energy bills. 

With a 13.5kWh storage capacity, the Tesla Power wall is ideal for households that look to use solar energy to cover the majority of their energy needs or even those looking to go greener and run an electric vehicle that is completely self-sufficient. 

One thing is clear though, using a solar PV system alongside a Tesla Power wall will mean that you never pay full price for your energy bills again.

The sleek design of the system means that it doesn’t look intrusive either inside or outside your home, and it even comes with an easy to use mobile application that lets you see a number of different statistics about your system, such as how well the battery is charging and even the amount of National Grid electricity you’re actually consuming.

As an example of use, a relatively large system for a residential building is a 4kWh solar array and can produce around 20kWh of energy on an average summer day, which is enough to fully charge a Tesla Power wall system and power your home on top of that. The Tesla Power wall system will run an average home through spring, summer and autumn (maybe even longer into winter) if your demand is low to normal.

When there is less sunlight and shorter days, the same solar array may produce much less energy and you will be more reliant on energy from the National Grid in addition to the Tesla Power wall system.
