Your Energy. Your choice.™
Energy production data is modeled using weather data over a 22 year period. Because weather patterns vary from year-to-year, the energy output may vary too.
The energy output may overestimate the actual energy production if nearby buildings, or other objects interfere with the solar or wind systems; The PV system size is the nameplate DC power rating. The energy production values in the table are valid only for crystalline silicon PV systems. The wind system size is the nameplate DC power rating.
The cost savings are determined as the product of the number of kilowatt hours (kWh) and the cost of electricity per kWh. These cost savings occur if the owner uses all the electricity produced by the renewable energy system, or if the owner has a net-metering agreement with the utility where the utility buys the electricity back at the same price that the owner pays the utility.
The information presented, is an estimate, based upon many assumptions and the limited personal data you entered. An actual site assessment by a qualified contractor is necessary to estimate the actual costs and benefits of installing a renewable energy device.
The energy savings estimators are developed by the U.S. EPA and U.S. DOE and are provided for estimating purposes only. Actual energy savings may vary based on use and other factors.
