Probably more as they may be lower density. But weight is not very important in a stationery battery.
Some are "second-life" batteries that have already been used in cars. Or ones that don't meet testing requirements for use in cars.

Temperature is not a big issue for large batteries. In a stationery installation the large mass together with thermal insulation will keep them adequately warm. Lithium-ion batteries don't freeze till about -30C.
Do you know how much batteries cost Tesla? There have been many estimates but Tesla does not divulge the details.
As I stated before many of the charging stations do have grid connectivity but the batteries reduce the demand charges that increase the fees for power. With supplemental grid power the station can ride out periods of low insolation.
You don't even know how much Tesla is charged for power, what contracts it has been able to arrange. Maybe it is selling power to the utility as well to get double use out of its batteries?
There is a great deal of information that you don't have that is not publicly available to do the calculations yourself.
