Tesla Solar Roof Replacement in Anacortes, WA

In 2023, Pinnacle Roofing Professionals completed a Tesla Solar Roof replacement in Anacortes, WA. The existing old concrete tile roof was removed and replaced with a 20.38kW Tesla Solar Roof V2 system — the tempered-glass tile generation where the tiles themselves serve as the roof while generating clean power. The installation was paired with (2) Tesla Powerwall+ batteries for whole-home backup and a Span smart electrical panel to serve as the home’s energy brain.

Project Overview

This Anacortes project is a full energy-transformation story: an old concrete tile roof came off, and a roof that generates power went on. For homeowners in Anacortes and across Washington who want energy independence, the combination of a Tesla Solar Roof, Powerwall+ backup, and a Span smart panel turns the home into a modern, self-managed energy system.

Removing the Old Concrete Tile Roof

The first step was stripping off the old concrete tile roof. Concrete tile is heavy and, once it reaches the end of its service life, can become a liability in the Pacific Northwest climate. Removing it prepared the roof deck for a completely different kind of roofing system — one where protection and power generation are built into the same surface.

The 20.38kW Tesla Solar Roof V2 Installation

Pinnacle installed a 20.38kW Tesla Solar Roof system using V2 tiles — the tempered-glass tile generation that has been in volume production since March 2020. Unlike traditional panels mounted on top of a roof, the V2 tiles are the roof: each tile is a durable, solar-generating surface that produces electricity while protecting the home from rain, wind, and sun.

For Anacortes homeowners considering a solar roof replacement, the Tesla Solar Roof V2 offers a unified look with no visible rack or panel hardware. Learn more about how the technology works in our Ultimate Guide to Understanding Tesla Solar Roof Technology.

(2) Tesla Powerwall+ Batteries for Whole-Home Backup

Energy generation is only half the equation. This project includes (2) Tesla Powerwall+ batteries to store the solar energy produced by the Tesla Solar Roof. When the grid goes down, the Powerwall+ units can provide whole-home backup power, keeping essential systems running. On a normal day, they store excess solar production so the home can use clean power after sunset.

This is the same Powerwall installation approach Pinnacle uses for homeowners across Washington who want greater energy independence and backup capability.

Span Smart Panel: The Electrical Brain

To complete the energy upgrade, Pinnacle installed a Span smart electrical panel. The Span panel replaces a traditional electrical panel and gives the homeowner intelligent control over how solar, battery, and grid power flow through the home. It acts as the electrical brain of the system, coordinating the Tesla Solar Roof, Powerwall+ batteries, and household circuits from one smart interface.

Because Pinnacle is a licensed roofing and electrical services contractor, the Span panel, Powerwall+ integration, and rooftop wiring were all handled as one coordinated install — single-source accountability from roof to breaker panel.

Smart Energy Control

The Span smart panel replaces the home’s traditional electrical panel and coordinates solar generation, battery storage, and grid power from one intelligent interface.

Why This Project Matters for Anacortes Homeowners

Anacortes homeowners face the same Pacific Northwest realities as the rest of Western Washington — long rainy seasons, occasional windstorms, and rising interest in energy independence. This project shows how a single roof replacement can become a complete energy upgrade:

  • A roof that pays you back — The Tesla Solar Roof V2 tiles generate electricity while functioning as the roof itself.
  • Backup when the grid goes down — (2) Powerwall+ batteries store solar energy for whole-home backup power.
  • Smart energy management — The Span panel lets the homeowner control which circuits draw from solar, battery, or grid power.
  • One contractor, one warranty — Pinnacle’s dual roofing and electrical licensing means the roof, batteries, and panel were installed as one integrated project.
