Tesla home charger and Powerwall install costs
Published figures for Level 2 chargers, Tesla Wall Connector installs, Powerwall, Powershare and panel upgrades. Each row shows its source and confidence label.
This data skews toward Florida and the Tampa Bay area. 25 of 104 install rows (24%) are Florida rows, and 24 (23%) name a Tampa area metro. Of the 31 rows that name a state, 25 (81%) are Florida. 4 rows give a multi-state region from the source. The other 69 rows name no state and are shown as "National". Several come from Florida-based installer pages, so treat them as general figures, not verified national averages. Counted by source, 47 of 104 rows (about 45%) come from 4 Florida installer pages. computed from this dataset, see methodology
Only rows of type "Project total" are full install costs (53 of 104). The rest are hardware, components, permit fees, add-ons, price differences, an hourly labor rate or a floor, and they are labeled in the Type column. Read the "what is included" column before comparing rows. Do not add an add-on or component row to a total that already includes it. Where a source gave a range with no average, the range is shown and no midpoint is invented. A cost shown with a published range is the source's stated average. "not stated" means no figure has been captured for that row.
