TESLA POWERWALL 2 POWER BILL BREAKDOWN SUMMER 2019-20

EV Channels Review

This video provides a detailed breakdown of the author's electricity bill during the Australian summer of 2019-2020, highlighting the significant impact of a Tesla Powerwall 2 and an 8.4kW solar panel system. The author showcases a drastic reduction in grid electricity usage, consuming only 1.5 kWh per day compared to 4.37 kWh the previous year, resulting in a remarkably low bill of $31.15. A key takeaway is the cost-effectiveness of the author's legacy "electric car plan" with AGL, which allows unlimited charging for both of his Tesla vehicles (a Model 3 and a Model S) for a flat rate of $1 per day. Despite the high peak electricity rates, the household strategically utilizes off-peak charging and relies heavily on solar and battery power, minimizing grid dependency. The video also touches upon COVID-19 updates and a brief segment on customizing Tesla models in Forza Horizon 3.
