E

nergy and where it comes from is top of mind for many people, as evidenced by the massive interest in Tesla’s “Powerwall”.

Treehugger reports that Tesla’s latest development in energy storage and use has created a hitherto unseen rush for the new device.

“It's barely been a week since Tesla unveiled its Powerwall energy system, which scales from residential houses to massive gigawatt-hour utility scale.

“Not enough time for much to happen, right? Well, apparently people have been waiting for something like this and there's a lot of pent up demand.

“On its earnings conference call, Elon Musk mentioned that they already received 38,000 reservations (the Powerwall will start shipping this summer) for the home system and 2,500 reservations for the much bigger, commercial-scale battery systems,” Treehugger reports.
