> Oh, and also batteries such as the tesla power wall can only be charged and discharged about 1000 times before they have lost a lot of capacity.

Powerwall's cycle life is much better than 1000. The Powerwall warranty guarantees 70% capacity after 10 years of daily cycles (i.e. 3650 cycles). This means they expect the capacity to be substantially above 70%.

We posted an analysis of Powerwall capacity retention: https://www.netzero.energy/content/2025-02/powerwall-analysi...
