I'm in year 5 of a problematic (but currently working OK) SolarEdge 16kWp PV system utilizing two 10kWh LG batteries. I've had a lot of trouble with the battery part of the system. Long story short: we're on a municipal power company (RMLD in MA) that will only pay us their wholesale cost of power for anything we export, so we have to maximize self-consumption with the batteries to make the system at all cost-efficient. It would be so much simpler without needing the batteries, but you can't squeeze blood from a stone.
Anyway, now that Powerwall 3 is out, I'm wondering if I can get Tesla to replace everything we've got except the PV panels with a Powerwall system so we can take advantage of "Charge on Sunshine" (without my having to do it manually), get a bit more storage capacity, and hopefully more reliability (my original two LG batteries bricked, so we had no batteries for 10 months and paid through the nose because we're on ToU and were getting killed noon-7pm each weekday).
Since the Tesla website does not offer a consultation for just Powerwall, I figured I'd ask here.
