This Carrboro home, initially equipped with a 10 kW solar power system and a thermal hot water system installed by Yes Solar Solutions in 2013, recently upgraded to include two Tesla Powerwalls. This enhancement significantly boosts the home’s energy independence, allowing for reliable power storage and greater control over energy use during peak times. The addition of the Powerwalls not only maximizes the benefits of the existing solar setup but also underscores the homeowner’s commitment to a more sustainable and self-sufficient future. The project highlights the ‘Power of Independence,’ ensuring that the household remains energy-efficient, resilient, and environmentally conscious throughout the entire year.
