The Tesla Powerwall 2 has a total energy storage capacity of 14 kWh, with 13.5 kWh being usable capacity. This lithium-ion battery system operates at 90% round-trip efficiency, meaning about 10% energy loss occurs during conversion between DC storage and AC household electricity.
What makes this specification particularly practical is Tesla's transparent labeling – unlike some manufacturers that advertise total cell capacity, the company explicitly states the actual usable energy available to homeowners. For context, this capacity can power essential home appliances for 12-24 hours depending on usage patterns, with the system supporting scalable configurations through multiple unit installations.
The 0.5 kWh buffer between total and usable capacity (14 kWh vs. 13.5 kWh) serves as a protective reserve to extend battery lifespan, a common practice in energy storage systems that balances performance with long-term durability.
