TESLA BATTERIES
TESLA III BATTERY FACTS:
Batteries are a great investment for homeowners, especially when paired with solar panels, for several reasons:
1. Energy Independence: Batteries store excess solar energy generated during the day, allowing homeowners to use that stored power when the sun isn’t shining (at night or on cloudy days), reducing dependence on the grid.
2. Protection Against Power Outages: Batteries provide backup power during grid outages, keeping essential appliances and systems running. This is particularly valuable in areas prone to blackouts or during extreme weather events.

3. Maximizing Solar Usage: Without a battery, excess solar energy that isn’t used immediately is often sent back to the grid. With a battery, homeowners can store that energy for later use, reducing the amount of energy they need to purchase from the utility company.
4. Financial Savings: Batteries allow homeowners to avoid buying expensive electricity during peak hours when utility rates are higher. Instead, they can use their stored energy, potentially lowering their overall energy bills. Also home-owners can earn energy credits from SCE during the month of September AND can make money from TESLA for sending energy to the grid during energy need “events”. See article for details:

5. Environmental Benefits: By maximizing the use of solar energy, homeowners reduce their reliance on fossil fuels, which helps lower their carbon footprint and contributes to environmental sustainability. Tell your neighbor: Climate control through legislative action: 8X more renewable since 2014

6. Increasing Property Value: Homes equipped with solar and battery storage systems often see an increase in property value, as energy-efficient homes are more attractive to buyers.
7. Grid Service Programs: In some areas, utilities offer programs that pay homeowners for allowing their batteries to feed power back into the grid during high-demand periods, creating an additional revenue stream.
