What Is Tesla Powerwall 3?
The Tesla Powerwall 3 is a 13.5 kWh lithium iron phosphate home battery with a built-in 11.5 kW solar inverter. It stores solar energy for evening use, provides whole-home backup during outages, and integrates with the Tesla app for real-time monitoring. A single Powerwall 3 can back up most Central Valley homes; two units cover high-load households with EV charging.
Who Is It Right For?
- Homeowners with existing solar who want battery backup
- New solar + battery installations (Powerwall 3 includes the inverter)
- Households with medical equipment requiring outage protection
- EV owners who want to charge from stored solar overnight
- Homes in PSPS-risk areas (foothills, rural Fresno/Madera/Tulare counties)
Problems It Solves
- PG&E outages during summer heat events and PSPS events
- High evening electricity bills under NEM 3.0 (store solar, use at night)
- Eliminating grid dependence for households with high AC loads
- EV charging from solar surplus rather than grid power

Installation Details for Central Valley Homeowners
System Sizing
One Powerwall 3 (13.5 kWh) covers essential loads for 12–24 hours for most Central Valley homes. Two units are recommended for whole-home backup including AC, or for households with EV charging. Robbins Energy sizes battery systems based on your actual PG&E usage data.
Solar Integration
Powerwall 3 includes a built-in solar inverter — for new installations, no separate string inverter is needed. For retrofits onto existing solar systems, a Gateway 2 or Backup Switch is required. Robbins Energy handles both new installs and retrofits.
Backup Power
Powerwall 3 supports whole-home backup — not just a critical loads panel. During a PG&E outage, your home transitions to battery power in under 20 milliseconds. Storm Watch mode monitors PG&E outage alerts and pre-charges the battery before a PSPS event.
Panel & Electrical
Powerwall 3 installation requires a 200-amp main panel. Homes with 100-amp service (common in older Fresno, Madera, and Tulare County neighborhoods) need a panel upgrade first. Robbins Energy performs panel upgrades as part of the installation.
Permitting & Interconnection
Battery storage installations require a building permit and PG&E interconnection approval in all Central Valley jurisdictions. Permit timelines vary: Fresno and Clovis typically 2–3 weeks; rural county jurisdictions 3–5 weeks. Robbins Energy handles all permitting.
