We installed the UK’s first Tesla Powerwall 3 in June 2024 and consulted on its design, earning Spirit Energy an award from Tesla for installation quality. In this video we explain everything you need to know about Tesla Powerwall 3, including its 15 kWh nominal (13.5 kWh usable) battery storage, 5 kW charge rate (up to 8 kW with DC expansion packs), hybrid inverter with kW continuous output, three MPPT solar string inputs and 60 to 550 V voltage range. We cover how to add up to three expansion packs for 216 kWh total capacity, Tesla Gateway power cut protection, seamless Tesla app integration, intelligent energy management and the robust ten-year warranty guaranteeing 80% capacity at the end of the warranty period.
