Well, I am a happy - very happy camper. My system is UP. Wow.
Briefly. Mid August this year, I reached out to Alternate Energy for Powerwalls.
8/31 - signed contract for AE to install 4.4 kW system/12 (370 watt) panels and 2 Powerwalls.
10/26 - AE completed the HOA Mod package for Board approval.
10/27 - package approved. And permission to proceed authorized. (Board said this package was most complete ever submitted for unit mod in 45+ years.)
12/23 - AE panel installation team arrived and installed 12 panels
12/24 - AE Powerwall and Inverter team arrived and completed 90% of installation.
12/30 - AE team arrived and completed the remaining portion of the Powerwall hookup and brought system online.
I was lucky AE found windows to start and complete my installation before year end. Qualifies me for 2020 tax credits.
Tesla did not want me as a client. They will not install panels on cedar shake roofs.
And no other Powerwall authorized contractor was interested in pursuing building permits because mine is a multi-family building (townhouse). AE got the permit and allowed the project to proceed.
My system is online since I do not export back to the grid. My other 35 panels are under NEM. So the 4.4 kW system is backup.
Reach out to me via PM if you wish for my AE rep that worked the magic for me.
