SunPower dealers can soon offer the Tesla Powerwall to residential customers

SunPower announced it will begin offering the Tesla Powerwall 3 through its residential dealer network. The company had exclusively been promoting its own Sunvault energy storage system to residential customers.

“Homeowners are increasingly turning to battery storage to protect themselves against ongoing utility rate hikes and grid outages. We witnessed record-breaking battery storage sales in 2024 and see a future where almost all solar systems are paired with storage,” said Shawn Fitzgerald, SVP Corporate Development and Product Strategy at SunPower. “Pairing Tesla Powerwall 3 with our industry-leading SunPower Equinox solar system was a natural progression in offering homeowners the best products on the market.”

The Powerwall 3 includes 11.5 kW of power and 13.5 kWh of energy with an integrated inverter that is fully compatible with the SunPower Equinox system.

“Expanding access to Tesla Powerwall 3 allows us to offer homeowners a comprehensive energy solution under one roof including sales, financing and installation,” said Joe Holstein, owner of SunPower by Quality Home Services, a SunPower Master Dealer. “Together with SunPower, we’re able to sell top-rated solar and battery storage solutions to meet the demands of our customers while simplifying the process to adopt clean energy.”

SunPower Financial has also expanded its suite of solar financing options to include loan and lease financing for Tesla battery installations as approximately 82% of SunPower customers choose to finance their solar + storage system. Qualified SunPower customers can finance their Tesla Powerwall 3 with no down payment, affordable monthly payments, and a fast application process making solar and storage more accessible to a variety of homeowners.
