A pair of Power Walls costs about $25K. Surely a Lightning is more than that?
- cmrdporcupine 4y agoA powerwall is only 13.5 kW-h. Less capacity than my Chevy Volt. A F150 is minimum 98kW-h.
- toomuchtodo 4y agoPowerwall gets a 30% federal tax credit (plus possible local, state, or utility rebates). Also in certain circumstances receives revenue share per kwh provided when called upon for grid support in Virtual Power Plant (VPP) arrangements. Vehicles receive a lesser EV subsidy ($7500 or roughly 15% assuming $50k purchase price).
