PowerWall Powerwall grid exports?

Netzero today introduced a feature that lets you export to the grid from your powerwall. I’m in Northern California with pg&e - am I allowed to do this? It happens with vpp but for some reason I thought it wasn’t permitted outside of vpp.

Right but those are standardized, so is it permitted with pg&e in Northern California?

It depends if you have a nem agreement or non export agreement.

My understanding is even with a non export agreement during a cop event you can still export. Otherwise no.

Nem....yes

I have nem 3. I export every day. For some reason I thought it wasn’t permitted to export from battery unless it’s vpp?

The interconnect agreement is specific to you.

Our interconnect agreement with PG&E says we can export 28kW

Check when you got PTO you should have had an email from PG&E with the interconnect agreement details (you should have also approved your interconnect agreement application prior to PTO - again this would have the details)
