Tesla Solar Roof + Powerwall
Posted by: joesmoe3 ()

Just wondering if folks took advantage of the Tesla Energy push for people to install their Solar Roof with Powerwall.

I see a bunch of Tesla's driving around -- I'm sure more than one have thought about putting on the roof.

I'm curious about real world experience with Dominion Energy, and their net metering in Virginia.

Not exactly the answer, but a friend of mine had it installed in NJ recently. First, all together it's rather expensive and without incentives (which I think is the case for VA) financials don't make much sense. Second, solar roof is a new tech for installers, and they literally learn as they go, so don't expect top-notch trouble-free completion. The roof itself is nice, but the way they did all the wiring - at least in my friends case, - was horrible and ugly conduit runs along the exterior walls totally ruin the looks.

Thank you for responding. In this case, they did a good job (not their first one, obviously, and I am happy with the results.
