You do understand that the Power Wall is just a battery pack and it requires extensive work to connect to anything, right?
Also, as I;ve pointed out before, the Power Wall is extremely expensive, especially if you actually use it as a power supply battery. For each kWh stored and retrieved, the cost is around $0.22 per kWh.
The Nano-Carbon batteries we use have a round trip cost of $0.07 per kWh stored and retrieved. They can also be economically recycled, which Lithium cannot.
