Calculate how much solar energy can be generated from your rooftop

Calculate how much solar energy can be generated from your rooftop

Energy Generation From Your Rooftop

  • Input your rooftop area and monthly electricity consumption
  • Based on your inputs, we will calculate the solar power generation possible which can in turn help reduce monthly electricity bills

Energy Generation From Your Rooftop


Electricity consumption per month

kWh (Units)

Rooftop area available
* Only 80% of this area will be considered, to account for shading by nearby structures.

Sq. m.

Rate sunshine availability in your area
* Enter 4.5 for regions with more than 300 days of sunshine, 4 for regions with 250 and 300 days, and 3 for regions with 150-250 days of sunshine

Inputs

Electricity consumption per month “; echo number_format($e); echo ” kWh
Roof area available “;echo number_format($r); echo ” Sq. m.
Rate of sunshine availability “;echo $u; echo ” kWh per day

Results

Solar energy that can be generated with given area

“; echo ” “;echo number_format($g);echo ” kWh

% of your monthly consumption that can be met with solar

“; echo round($o,2);echo “%

Assumptions
  • We take 10 Sq. m. as the required area for 1 kW solar panels
  • Please note that the % is the maximum possible contribution, and might be lower if a large % of electricity is consumed mainly during non-sunlight hours and the solar plant does not use batteries to store solar power to use in the non-sunlight hours
  • Panel efficiency is assumed to be 16%. For higher efficiency panels, a smaller roof top area will give a higher output
