Solar Power System Sizing Estimator


Here is a great tool if you are just getting started with creating your own solar energy. The Solar power system sizing estimator. Use this estimator to get a pretty good idea of how many Solar Panels you will need to generate electricity and how many Storage Batteries you will need to store that electricity. The estimator lets you make simple choices and then calculates the WattHour usage based on typical configurations.

After you see how the estimator works, you can figure your own system size much more accurately by determining the wattage needed for each of your appliances and then manually calculating the required WattHours. This procedure is explained under the details of the Estimator's Calculations below.

Select closest Size and Use factor for each Item. Just click the 'Calculate' button below to see the pre-selected default settings which approximate the typical usage for a small household of 2 persons. Or, select the choices that apply to you from the drop down lists then click the 'Calculate' button below.

Just Click Here to go to the solar sizing estimator now!
