Lately, when there's talk of advancements in everyday comfort technology, Tesla has become a household name. While being known chiefly for its version of smart cars for the future, the company is expanding to various outlets to make everyday living even more straightforward. The power source for many household things comes from a collection of batteries, and Tesla's advancements took this chance to excel.

Tesla's home battery, named the Powerwall, is a lithium-ion battery that is rechargeable on solar energy and is the only battery that stores that solar power for use in the evenings when there is no power source from the sun! So, how exactly is Tesla able to make this work? Here, we will cover the ins and outs of Tesla's home battery, showing the future of powering up!

Solar panels work as you'd think; the sun charges the panels and the panel's power whatever you need that's hooked up. The Tesla Powerwall stores energy from crucial times during the day (midday, to be exact) to be used later in the evening when more power is typically consumed.

As the Powerwall becomes readily available for market consumers, constant updates are being made to the product. At this point, the entire home battery consists of a solar panel that is installed on your rooftop and the inverter that takes that power and makes your home appliances, and whatever else, run. The inverter works by 'converting the current electricity from solar panels or a home battery into the alternating current that makes those things run.'

The fact that a company as big as Tesla is taking on this type of project means excellent things for advancing solar energy. More and more people are switching to a better, reliable, and renewable source of energy that is naturally occurring every day. Tesla continues to outdo itself in what it can do, and the home battery is only one of many great ideas from this future-minded company.
