The Tesla Powerwall 3 has
arrived in Australia, and it's already setting a new standard for home battery storage. With its impressive power output, integrated solar
inverter, and seamless smart home integration, the Powerwall 3 is the most advanced residential battery Tesla has ever produced. But here's
the exciting part, thanks to the Cheaper Home Batteries Program, there's never been a better time to invest in one.
Unlike its predecessor, the Powerwall 2, the Powerwall 3 features a built-in solar inverter that can handle up to 20kW of solar input. This eliminates the need for a separate inverter, reducing installation complexity, lowering costs, and creating a cleaner setup. Whether you're adding a battery to an existing solar system or starting fresh, the Powerwall 3 simplifies everything.
The Powerwall 3 delivers 11.04kW of continuous power, more than double what the Powerwall 2 offered. This means it can comfortably run your entire home, including air conditioning, electric ovens, and other heavy appliances, without breaking a sweat.
With 13.5kWh of usable storage, a single Powerwall 3 can typically power the average Australian home through the night. Need more capacity? You can stack up to four units for a total of 54kWh, ideal for larger households or those seeking serious energy independence.
The Powerwall 3 is IP67-rated and can withstand flooding in up to 0.6 metres of water. It operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 50°C, making it suitable for everything that the Queensland weather can throw at it.
Through the Tesla app, you can monitor and control your entire energy system from anywhere. Choose from multiple operating modes including Self-Consumption Mode to maximise solar usage, Time-Based Control to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates, or Backup-Only Mode for outage protection. The Storm Watch feature even charges your battery automatically when severe weather is forecast.
Tesla backs the Powerwall 3 with a 10-year warranty guaranteeing 70% capacity retention, giving you peace of mind for the long term.
The Australian Government's Cheaper Home Batteries Program is now live, offering rebates of up to $18,600 on eligible battery systems. For a 13.5kWh Tesla Powerwall 3, you could save approximately $3,720, a substantial discount that significantly improves your return on investment.
Here's the catch: the rebate decreases every year until 2030. Waiting could cost you thousands. In 2025, you're getting the maximum possible savings, so acting now makes financial sense.
At iinergy, we handle everything from helping you choose the right system to installation and rebate claims. If you're ready to slash your power bills, protect your home during outages, and lock in the best savings available, now's the time to act.
