Tesla is planning to release the Powerwall Version 2.0 this summer But starting the second half of 2016, the Gigafactory should start producing Tesla's own batteries (still in partnership with Panasonic), which should be better and cheaper than Panasonic's current cells. This timing is probably not a coincidence. The Powerwall Version 2.0 is probably designed to use Gigafactory batteries. In facto, demand for these stationary battery systems - not just residential but also for utility/commercial use - are probably factored in Tesla's plan to ramp up Gigafactory production enough to get economies of scales, and thus lower costs, by the time the Model 3 starts rolling out.
