Just got the update on the app yesterday. My mileage is going up and my main breaker is off.

Are you saying you have solar but no Powerwall and Powershare is working? Asking because we have solar and Powerwall and are sadly still waiting for PowerShare.

I sure hope so, also waiting on this promised functionality. A big reason I have/keep the truck even. Have two Gateway V2s, each with 2 Powerwall 2s, and each with a UWC. One system shows its on a newer 25.2 firmware (but doesn't have this yet), and the other a 24.44 firmware (which does't either). I know 24.44+ is required for PowerShare if you have Gateway 3 specifically for PowerShare.

Hoping we get soon!

Here is what is looks like with a 3rd party solar inverter. If you have a Tesla solar inverter then you will also see your production value.

I also have a 3rd party inverter from SolarEdge & as you can see my REC PV system was producing 2.5 kW when the screenshot was taken.

Awesome! You are able to see production due to the CT’s in powerwall.

Question to see the powershare option in the application do you first need to go off grid? I have solar and powerwalls with 2 inverters

Please clarify what software you are inquiring about. Cybertruck, SoLarEdhe, Tesla app, etc..

And for clarity I should add that I too am still waiting for the PowerShare update so I can use the Cybertruck for whole house backup too. I contacted the PowerShare team last week & was told it’s coming soon whatever that means in the world of Tesla.

I thought you had the PowerShare software update. I did not notice that you have Powerwall on ur system. Only noticed your Tesla app reports solar kWh generated. Thought u only had third part solar.

I have third party solar with Enphase controllers with PowerShare installed. I am also awaiting PowerShare software update. MyTesla app reports how much kWhs are feeding back to the grid and net usage by my house.

As I understand it, if you have solar and powerwall already Tesla does not provide you access to PowerShare. They want you to wait until they develop that feature and release at an undetermined date in the future. I have been waiting 1yr already. Even though PowerShare was part of the package you bought in a foundation series.

Here’s a link to a new thread just came out that you need to read.

Robruok - just wanted to confirm that your system is still working well. We're having an additional/parallel solar system being installed today, and from what I understand they can land the solar in the Powershare Gateway instead of the panel. From what I read in a different thread that's what you did, which is what enabled you to have your solar function during daylight hours and power your house & Cybertruck during an outage where it's disconnected from the grid. Do I have that right?
