AI Summary

Tesla introduced home power‑backup features in the United States, including Powershare integration with its Powerwall system. In Australia, a recent software update appears to disable the third‑party gear that owners use to power their homes, effectively turning the feature off. The change highlights a test case for who truly controls the battery installed in a driveway. Mark Purcell, an electrical engineer and energy advocate from Noosa Heads who owns two Teslas and a bidirectional DC charger, has been monitoring the issue and has contributed to CleanTechnica on the topic.
