ARDEN HOMES OFFERS TESLA

POWERWALL AS STANDARD

INCLUSION

Responding to increasing

consumer demand for

residential solar solutions,

Arden Homes has partnered

with CSR Bradford to provide

Victorian homebuyers with a Tesla Powerwall as a

standard inclusion in their new home.

Arden is the first major Victorian building company to

offer this package and already has plans in place to extend

this technology offering across more of its property

ranges in the near future.

“Homeowner expectations around home design are

changing – customers want better performing homes that

are comfortable, beautiful and efficient,” explains Arden

Homes director Dean Morrison.

“We know that through intelligent home design

solutions we can maximise a home’s performance.”

“With rising energy bills it’s no wonder that homeowners

are looking for ways to gain more control of their energy

management and live a lower impact life. This is one of

the reasons that prompted us to introduce this initiative,”

Dean says.

“Consumers want to be less dependent on the grid and

have greater control over their family’s energy use. The

Bradford Solar ChargePack including a Tesla Powerwall

battery allows them to achieve this, making a home more

attractive to buyers.”

“We know there is a growing curiosity around

alternative energy sources as consumers become savvier

about how these solutions can create energy savings,

increase a property’s resale value along with the obvious

environmental benefits.”

“We chose CSR Bradford as our preferred partner to

deliver this package to our customers because we have

had a long standing relationship and regard them as

reliable suppliers that produce quality products.”
