IDK the Tesla terms, and this kind of arrangement is new where I live.
We just get market price for the power. And that varies a lot and can even go negative. Last year our average price was about 4 cent, but I'm guessing those deals lending your battery capacity have better prices?

For us the value of using the power from the battery ourselves is way better, as the average total price here for using the grid is almost 30 cent, because cost of using the grid ( transportation of the electricity ) and taxes are added to the market price of the electricity when we buy.
