Battery Storage (NEM 3.0): What to Expect
Under NEM 3.0, the value of solar energy Edison customers export to the grid has dropped by roughly 75%. A battery stores your midday solar and releases it during expensive peak hours (4–9 PM).

Without a battery (NEM 3.0)
Your panels produce the most midday — when you're not home. Edison pays very little for that excess, and you buy power back at full price in the evening. Your savings shrink.
With a battery
Store midday solar and use it during peak hours instead of selling low and buying high. Your savings stay strong — and you're protected during outages, essential in desert heat.
IID customers
NEM 3.0 only applies to Edison (SCE) customers. On IID? You're not affected — but a battery still adds value through backup power and energy independence.
Tesla Powerwall 3
As a Tesla Certified Installer, we recommend the Powerwall 3: 13.5 kWh usable storage, 11.5 kW continuous output and a 10-year Tesla warranty.
