Introduction & Benefits of Powerwall

If you’ve been on our website before, or have read our posts on Social Media, or if you are one of the many 1000’s of people who have received our Solar PV or EV Charging products, or renewables advice, you will most likely know that we (TLGEC) are Certified Tesla Powerwall Installers.

In fact, we were the 1st company in Europe to install Powerwall 2 for one of our long-standing customers in Kent.

More recently, we became the 1st in the UK to install a triple-stacked (3 connected powerwalls) 40.5 kWh system.

We continue to work hard to maintain Powerwall Installers Certification, because we want to do everything we can to help our energy-conscious customers reduce their reliance on fossil fuels, take control of their own energy, save money and have the peace of mind that comes with having a backup power supply, if and when they need it.

From initial contact through to post-implementation support, the Little Green Energy Company has been an excellent company to work with. The Solar PV and Home Battery options were discussed in detail and I felt well-informed and comfortable with my choice of product and configuration which included the very new Tesla Powerwall 2.

Unavailable in Europe until then, the first-batch of Powerwall 2’s arrived in the UK and the TLGEC begun the installation without delay; polite, friendly and helpful engineers made the job that much less of an inconvenience and within 2 days, it was all up and running.

I installed the Tesla App on my phone which gives me a real-time view of my new electrical eco-system powering the house – it gets addictive if not careful! All in all, a very happy customer with both service and product and would highly recommend TLGEC to other energy conscious people.

How Powerwall Battery Storage Works

When the sun shines on your solar panels, Powerwall can take that clean, sustainable solar energy and store it in the battery, so you can then use that energy at night, to power the energy demands from your home.

Our certified and extensively trained installers can fit your Powerwall with ease and we’ll take care of everything for you, including system design, to ensure your Powerwall system is perfect for your individual requirements.

The unit will fit seamlessly onto any solid floor, wall or structure.

Powerwall can be used indoors or outside and once installed, it will be connected to the grid, ready to export any excess energy generated from your solar panels, to maximise the economic benefit of Powerwall. The 14kWh lithium Powerwall battery includes a liquid thermal control system, integrated inverter and software that cleverly uses your stored energy when you need it most.

If you are interested in Battery Storage, we can help you create a customised solar-plus-battery solution, which in turn will enable you to gain access to the free, abundant power of the sun, and reduce your reliance on fossil fuels, which are damaging the environment around us and the world we live in.
