I would think that Solar City would know all about this.
Or, maybe I wouldn't ?

I don't have any info, but the StorEdge diagram is confusing to me
when it says "energy independence." I can see a simple compatibility
between the Powerwall DC voltage (300 to 400VDC) and the SolarEdge
operating voltage, ~350VDC, and I can also see how this setup could be
used to maximize self-consumption (a grid-zero type system).
What is confusing is the AC output of the inverter - it is not
diagrammed as a multimode system, which is what "energy independence"
would indicate to me. The brochure is not showing an AC loads panel
that can be isolated from the grid, or any kind of separate transfer
switch - which would be necessary for a multimode system.
I would be curious to hear what the technical requirements will be to
install the system as a multimode system, if that is indeed a
possibility - which it may not be.

Hello,
Anyone have detailed info on the Storedge battery-compatible
system from Solaredge? I only found a brochure on their website.
Apparently batteries can be added to a new or existing Solaredge
inverter (the brochure says they have partnered with Tesla’s
Powerwall) for backup power. They call it “DC-coupling”.
