Tesla says its new home battery, the Powerwall 3, has twice the power of the previous model with a battery capacity of 13.5 kWh and a maximum charging and discharging capacity of 4.6 kW. The size of the overall installation is variable according to customer needs: Up to four Powerwall 3 batteries can be scaled for one application. The product can be managed via the Tesla App and adapted to different needs. It weighs 130 kg and measures 1099 x 609 x 193 mm.
The US company is highlighting the advantage of “emergency power protection” offered by its new Powerwall generation. This feature means the Powerwall can automatically detect failures and become the house’s energy source when the mains power fails. In the event of a power failure in Europe, the inverter can deliver between 3.68 and 11.04 kilowatts.
The company points out that the integrated photovoltaic inverter also means customers do not have to purchase a third-party inverter. DC coupling ensures greater energy efficiency and easier installation, as fewer components must be installed.
