Tesla’s latest innovation is here — the Tesla Powerwall 3 Expansion Pack. Already known for its sleek design and intelligent control, Powerwall 3 now offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for homeowners who want to increase their battery storage without installing a second full unit.
Whether you want to store more of your solar energy, prepare for power cuts, or reduce your electricity bills even further — the Expansion Pack makes it possible.
The Expansion Pack is a DC-coupled battery module that connects directly to your Powerwall 3. It doesn’t have its own inverter — instead, it uses the existing Powerwall 3 infrastructure, which keeps the cost and complexity of installation lower.
Each Expansion Pack adds:
13.5 kWh of additional usable storage
Seamless integration with your existing Powerwall 3
Shared use of the existing inverter and control system
Scalable storage up to 54 kWh per system
It’s ideal for homes that want more capacity without doubling up on equipment.
If you already have Tesla Powerwall 3, the Expansion Pack is a logical next step. Here’s why:
✅ Cost-Effective Scaling
Adding an Expansion Pack is significantly more affordable than a second Powerwall. You get more storage without the need for extra hardware like another inverter or gateway.
✅ Faster Charging
A standard Powerwall 3 charges at around 5 kW. Add one Expansion Pack and that bumps up to 8 kW. With more solar or cheaper off-peak electricity available, the faster you can store it, the better.
✅ More Independence
More storage = less reliance on the grid. Store solar during the day or charge overnight on low-rate tariffs, then use that energy when rates are high or during outages.
There are two main installation options depending on your available space and preferences:
1. Stacked Installation
The Expansion Pack is mounted behind the existing Powerwall 3.
Compact footprint, ideal for garages and utility rooms.
2. Side-by-Side Installation
Both units are mounted on the wall next to each other.
Easier to service and often quicker to install.
Flexible cabling allows positioning the Expansion Pack up to 4 metres away from the main unit, so even tight spaces can be made to work.
