Solmatix Approved To Install Tesla Powerwall

Construction News Image

Solmatix has been named a registered Tesla Powerwall installer, giving homeowners across Northern Ireland access to Tesla's newest home energy storage system.

Tesla Powerwall 3, along with its expansion units, is now available to order in the region, with both backup and non-backup installation configurations offered.

The accreditation follows specialist Tesla training for Solmatix's team, equipping engineers with the expertise to design and install systems for customers nationwide.

Powerwall 3 integrates a home battery with a solar inverter, delivering up to 11.04kW of output. It enables households to store electricity generated by solar panels, helping reduce reliance on the grid and manage energy bills more effectively.

Each unit provides 13.5kWh of storage, and up to three expansion units can be added per system, each supplying an additional 13.5kWh. This lets homeowners scale capacity in line with current usage and future needs.

Neville Bell, Managing Director of Solmatix, said: "The arrival of Tesla Powerwall 3 in Northern Ireland is an exciting development for homeowners who want greater control over how they generate, store and use electricity.

"Becoming a registered Tesla Powerwall installer reflects our continued commitment to bringing high-quality renewable energy technology to the Northern Ireland market. Following the specialist training provided to our team, we are ready to support some of the first Powerwall 3 installations in homes across the region.

"Battery storage has an increasingly important role to play in helping households use more of the renewable electricity generated by their solar panels. It also gives homeowners the flexibility to charge their battery using lower-cost electricity during night-time or off-peak periods, where an appropriate tariff is available, and use that stored energy when electricity costs are higher.

"This can help reduce reliance on electricity purchased from the grid at peak times, provide greater control over household energy costs and support our wider ambition to help more people Own Your Power."

Powerwall 3 can be installed as part of a new solar-and-battery package or, where eligible, alongside existing solar PV. Backup options are available to add resilience during grid outages when appropriately configured.

Ruben Nield, Business Development Manager for Northern Ireland at Solmatix, said: "We are already seeing growing interest from homeowners who want to understand how battery storage can help them get more value from their solar panels.

"Powerwall 3 brings solar generation, energy storage and intelligent system management together in one solution. Its ability to accommodate up to three expansion units also means customers can build a system around their current energy requirements while retaining the option to increase their storage capacity in the future.

"Our team will work with each homeowner to assess their property, electricity consumption and objectives before recommending the most appropriate system. We are now inviting people who would like to be among the first Powerwall 3 customers in Northern Ireland to register their interest with Solmatix."

Powerwall 3 and its expansion units are backed by a comprehensive 10-year warranty with unlimited cycles, 80% energy retention and 100% depth of discharge, subject to Tesla's applicable terms.

Solmatix delivers renewable energy solutions for residential, commercial, industrial and public sector clients across the UK and Ireland, covering assessment, system design, installation, commissioning, monitoring and ongoing support.

Homeowners interested in Tesla Powerwall 3 can contact Solmatix to arrange an initial consultation or register their interest.
