Tesla Powerwall 3 Arrives at Perth Solar Warehouse

Tesla Powerwall 3 installed in a garage on a black wall

Tesla’s new home and business integrated energy storage device, Powerwall 3, is now available for order in Australia [August 16, 2024]. Fortuitously for West Australian customers, Perth Solar Warehouse was among the Top 2% of Australian Tesla Premium Certified Installers to represent the Tesla Powerwall 3 at the Sydney product launch. From today you can order the new Tesla Powerwall 3 at Perth Solar Warehouse.

Almost a year ago, the world gained a glimpse of a newly installed Tesla Powerwall 3 in the USA. Instantly, social media tried desperately to uncover the specifications. Within hours, there were graphically enhanced specifications available from a side photo shot of the new model and a way that those details would translate for the Australian population.

Beyond speculating, Tesla Australia has announced its Powerwall 3 Australian models.

Powerwall 3 Specifications

Better suited to accommodate Australian DNSP (Distributed Network Service Providers) and appealing to a new niche with three direct solar inputs with the potential to infuse up to a more appealing 20kW maximum solar array size. “In most instances, ‘new solar’ just became very interesting with Powerwall 3”, states Derek McKercher, director.

Perth Solar Warehouse Becomes an Authorised Bluetti Stockist

Couple using the Bluetti AC180P on a park table with appliances plugged in as a portable power supply

As the demand for energy convenience increases, so does the demand for dependable and safe portable power supplies. Perth Solar Warehouse, a leading solar and battery supplier of turnkey sustainable energy systems [WA: Top 5], diversifies into camping and portable supplies through the Bluetti product suite.

Portable power systems are undoubtedly on the rise. However, with recent media headlines about lithium battery fires [broadly], it’s essential to identify the quality brands available in the portable power supply space. The Perth Solar Warehouse product suite targets innovative brands with high customer success globally to ensure improved reputational outcomes. Bluetti has a solid history of high customer success throughout America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Therefore, it seems only fitting that such customer satisfaction will continue in Australia, specifically Western Australia.

In a relatively new technology space, very few ‘known’ brands of portable power supplies exist. However, Bluetti has become synonymous with those investing in dependable off-grid solutions.

Customers can purchase Bluetti portable power supplies and solar panels from Bluetti directly online. However, suppose you’re seeking a hands-on buying experience to test your loads/appliances before committing to the investment. In that case, Perth Solar Warehouse provides a more classic in-store approach, combining technical know-how at the point of sale with the bonus of using your Bluetti immediately.

Value guarantee: Perth Solar Warehouse is committed to a Bluetti website price match or better on ‘in-stock’ premium model items.

SigenStor Approved: PSW Energy Delivers Sigenergy Showcase

June 5, 2024: Sigenergy Sigenstor single-phase 5 and 6 kW reach ‘CEC-approved’ status for compliance in the Australian market, marking the green light for Sigenergy single-phase 5 and 6 kW system (with battery) installations in Australia. Given single-phase approval, Sigenergy’s three-phase SigenStor approval should follow in the not-to-distant future.

The anticipated approval of SigenStor single-phase systems is welcome news for electrification enthusiasts seeking a comprehensive sustainable energy solution towards an entirely electric shift. More notably, SigenStore has an easily adaptable (modular) ‘Sigen EV DC charging module‘ with up to 25 kW fast charging capability for those eagerly awaiting a bidirectional electric vehicle charging solution.

Further complementing an industry-leading product lineup of sustainable energy products, PSW Energy has launched a Showcase category for Sigenergy today in selected West Australian regions. Due to higher profiling, PSW Energy’s Showcase categories remain reserved for specific products that resonate and appeal to consumers. Sigenergy sits alongside Tesla (Home Energy and EV Charging) and Bluetti (Camping and Portable Power) as one of three specialised products likely to add greater value for more through improved user experience, further expediting sustainable energy uptake.

Gauging the rapid appeal in European and Asian markets, SigenStor’s 5-in-one, and more customisable design is likely to outpace many established inverter and sustainable energy brands in Australia from 2025.

” SigenStor is not just another rehashed, rebadged solution we’ll see prominently throughout SNEC 2024 [Shanghai New Energy Conference]. It’s 100% its own, from software to hardware. Once in a decade, a new technology emerges that gains virtually instant consumer appeal. Sigenergy is this decades. Most notably, they’ve recruited really well as the foundations to drive rapid adoption.

Sven [Albersmeier-Braun] is highly regarded for his time at SENEC and is ideal for the European markets. Will [Hall] is respected among industry professionals and has been appointed Australia’s director through extensive Australian solar industry experience. He’s committed to hard work and will take great care of Sigenergy in Australia. These people don’t just go to any company. More depth comes from leading global marketing and software development backgrounds who can inspire positive change.“

Derek McKercher

Sigenergy SigenStore will complement Australia’s love for superior technology that incorporates a high-value feature return no matter where one is on their sustainable energy journey. Given that Sigenstor can work as a simplified hybrid inverter-only option ready for future expansion, the base-level solution has a relatively low entry point. More comprehensively, with all features incorporated, SigenStor is the ultimate all-in-one electrification (solar, battery, and EV charging) solution from the start.

Although not yet approved,  comparative base-level Sigenergy 5 kW SigenStor hybrid inverter (no battery), through PSW Energy with 6.6 kW of combined nominated solar panels, is attainable in the mid-price bracket. An equivalent option positioned between Goodwe and Fronius and considered a high-value inverter based on added features.

Increasing Investment in Sustainable Energy Infrastructure Business

PSW Energy & Perth Solar Warehouse

McKercher Corporation expansion of associated brands Perth Solar Warehouse and PSW Energy facilitates up to six times greater capacity potential. The move comes as product diversity of energy transition infrastructure increases ahead of 2022.

From April 1 2021, Perth Solar Warehouse and PSW Energy jointly relocated to an increased capacity warehouse, head office and state-of-the-art showroom in Bibra Lake, Western Australia. The move appeases the growing consumer demand for solar, battery and electric vehicle charging technologies from a reputable Western Australian based source.

Broadening the diversity of product offerings for brand-aware shoppers and scaling direct purchasing relationships with manufacturers, Perth Solar Warehouse and PSW Energy will relocate to the new facility in Q2 2021. An earlier than anticipated move as opposed to Q3/ Q4 2021, when consumer demand for energy storage technologies will increase exponentially.

McKercher Corporation’s continued investment into global electrification and sustainable energy infrastructure through Perth Solar Warehouse and PSW Energy highlights consumer demand for energy transition technologies.

Visit the new Perth Solar Warehouse and PSW Energy Research Centre, Monday to Friday, 9 am to 4 pm; 3/90 Discovery Dve, Bibra Lake, Western Australia, 6163 (Entry via Efficiency Way).

PSW Energy Research Centre by Perth Solar Warehouse A New Customer Experience

Engineering energy accessories

From October 2017, Perth Solar Warehouse closed the gap through the newly established PSW Energy brand to offer Perth Solar Warehouse infrastructure/services to a broader market. With a continued commitment to outstanding service and a refined digitally accessible product suite, PSW Energy provides a uniquely identifiable and leading reputation.

A  design and an extensive product offering reaching a broader consumer base are the driving factors behind PSW Energy. In February 2018, a new online shop front to better showcase the technically advanced energy-saving product line began construction. In April 2018, Perth Solar Warehouse began referring existing specified pages to the new PSW Energy online store. In May 2018, the new PSW Energy online store opened its doors to the public.

A dual-layered decision. When McKercher Corporation created Perth Solar Warehouse in 2011, it was the only “Perth Solar” labelled business in the market. With the rise in competitive SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) space and the success of Perth Solar Warehouse online, many business competing businesses realised an unprecedented marketing opportunity.

McKercher Corporation Director Derek McKercher mentioned, “It (Perth Solar Warehouse) is an interesting name to claim intellectual property rights to. IP Australia is reluctant to recognise a trademark infringement involving a capital city and other complex particulars (industry references). Considering the established nature of Perth Solar Warehouse online and the quality knowledgebase offered, as an organisation, we believe PSW Energy will be able to flourish without the ongoing confusion with alternative ‘Perth Solar’ labelled suppliers”. 

A broader business branding also facilitates opportunities and diversity for the business beyond Perth and Solar specific markets.

Pre-2013, the local Western Australian market endured a lack of high-end infrastructure supply for consumers with a long-term energy investment strategy. Perth Solar Warehouse bridged a gap for consumers researching online for German-made components and alternative high-end solar products. 

Since the dawn of the scaled consumer uptake of photovoltaics to offset energy consumption (2007 -2009), the conversation has existed mainly around primary solar system size and available tariffs to evoke an energy bill reduction. Fast forward ten years, and the industry is on the brink, if not already in the process of evolution. With limited design parameters and better technology, self-generated power supplies are more than just solar panels and an inverter. It’s more than self-generation. Modern homes and businesses must be more intelligent to master bill reduction and net zero carbon emissions. More innovative appliances and software alongside energy storage form the basis of a modern sustainable energy solution. 

McKercher Corporation’s vision for PSW Energy is to empower and educate users towards sustainable energy adoption. 

A testament to the localised success and to ensure transparency for past and present customers, the Perth Solar Warehouse name remains as the acronym forming PSW Energy. “Everything remains the same, existing warranty obligations, contact numbers, staff, location, ownership, all we’re doing is redefining our position in the market where potential confusion could arise,” said Derek McKercher.

A flagship business by Mckercher Corporation, PSW Energy will receive increased investment to achieve its goals within a competitive market. However, the overall organisational focus remains broad. New developments are in the pipeline in alternative business models. The primary objective for the immediate future is to develop the PSW Energy brand and bolster existing businesses.

German Made Solar Systems Remain a Viable Solution Through Increased Scale

German Solar Specialists PSW Energy

German made solar equipment often has an increased capital requirement for long-term energy investors. When specific alternative manufacturing processes don’t complement a suitable medium to long-term investment strategy, an excellent justification for the added capital expenditure can be justified. Durability, testing practices, and quality control over 3x greater than IEC standards ensure an end product that performs well beyond the expected life in even the most arduous conditions. 

Since 2014, Perth Solar Warehouse has improved languishing adoption rates through scale by resonating with market sentiment where the desirability for German made solar components remain—proving that reduced uptake was more a result of a lack of accessibility. An overall product suite adjustment has now ensured a hub for consumers seeking a German made solar specialist with unrivalled choice. A simple concept that benefits the consumer beyond expectation.

Further complimenting the change, an online retail presence removes the added cost of exorbitant sales commissions built into the price of alternative products in the market. Centrally located for diverse, the Perth (Cockburn Central) based warehouse & office makes for quick dispatch, customer collection or fast turnaround of installed solar systems.

Shifting to an online-only retail presence was a risk. However, online shop fronts reduce sales-related expenses for consumers who know what they want. In turn, the savings are passed on to the customer, further assisting German solar infrastructure adoption against cost-competitive Chinese products. While supply chains continue to accommodate German made solar accessibility, Perth Solar Warehouse will continue to provide these high-end solutions to consumers.

In time, the internet will keep most solar businesses honest in the modern world, as consumers now possess a louder voice than ever before, thanks to the emergence of social media in the last decade. The same social media in which Perth Solar Warehouse relies on honest customer feedback as referrals to generate continued new business. An evergreen approach.

Perth Solar Warehouse In-house Solar Installation Service Bucks Industry Trend

In-house CEC Accredited solar installers Perth WA

It’s known that verticle integration of sustainable energy infrastructure supply businesses provides improved customer outcomes. Therefore, why do many companies avoid executing the installation directly? Reducing risk is the answer, yet this potentially compromises a critical component when supplying sustainable energy infrastructure. Many firms hire certified installation firms through outsourcing agreements to implement their product. Begging the question, who is your installer and who holds the installation warranty?

It’s logical to assume the organisation you purchased the product from, and you would be correct. However, layers of complexity arise in the event of an issue, often overlooked at the point of sale. Organisations that use outsourced services usually don’t carry implementation licences, saving on maintaining a skilled blue-collar workforce. Support, though often lags as the failure, and cost must be discerned between two parties. All of which isn’t too bad if a resolution with minimal downtime can be managed behind the scenes.

Perth Solar Warehouse focuses long-term attention on infrastructure supply and in-house installation services. The launch of sustainable energy infrastructure supplier Perth Solar Warehouse encouraged a greater demand for in-house skilled technicians who knew specialised products intimately from one organisation.  

Based in Perth, Western Australia, possessing in-house CEC accredited solar installers ensures a streamlined process that no longer requires the on-going major developmental attention as any alternative emerging sector.

The implementation of Perth Solar Warehouse is to deliver as a hassle-free option for any person searching for trusted solar power and energy equipment online. With transparent products, pricing and the ability to be one of the industries most trusted sources for related news, we have done that. Now, Perth Solar Warehouse will continue forward with strong foundations and its assured assets of in-house CEC accredited solar installers.

Operated solely in Perth, Western Australia, the solar services installation division continues to outperform initial expectations through the implementation of strict, on and off site disciplines. Those of which are lacking through third party service based businesses within the solar industry.

A realisation of the requirement for advanced skilled installation practices came to attention while observing alternative service based businesses. Not just in the solar energy industry but across a broad spectrum of service based industries. We realised there was a way to do it better, so we utilised what we knew and developed a series of exclusive practices and workflows.

Alternative businesses preach about being the best. However, what defines the best? There is no point competing in a business environment unless what one offers is better or different to what’s already available for consumers. Customer satisfaction plays a vital role within the implementation of the in-house solar installers which Perth Solar Warehouse possess. These resounding actions connect with people while separating and highlighting the industries best.

Perth Solar Warehouse Provides Sustainable Energy Infrastructure to an Astute Local Demographic

DONE BETTER AND DIFFERENTLY

McKercher Corporation Pty Ltd has officially launched a new implementation department for the Perth solar sector. The launch comes after an extensive 24-month research and development period. The advanced installation service department is to commence exclusively with principal brand Perth Solar Warehouse (formerly Power Made Easy).

Facilitating an elite installation component for solar power systems in Australia is a process of refinement. A formula of unique installation methods assisted with advanced technology allows the service department to remain cost competitive to the industry average. Employing a rigged process adaptable to diverse and unique projects enables our exclusive service department to offer industry leading warranties on all fronts. A must when implementing advanced technologies

A PRODUCT IS ONLY EVER AS GOOD AS ITS MAKER

The real beauty is the simplicity behind the new Perth Solar Warehouse exclusive installation department. An evolution of what is expected by trade services. Solar power in its designed form is a sustainable energy technology. However, a product is only ever as good as it’s maker, no matter what materials one utilises. With this new structure, Mckercher Corporation can ensure solar photovoltaic power is a lasting, experience for anyone.

An exciting development within McKercher Corporation and one of which will enable future projects to evolve efficiently through solid implementation foundations. As McKercher Corporation expands to a new level, key businesses withing the McKercher corporation group are intended to grow alongside the developments to ensure diversity through the company.
