Understand Your Solar Numbers

Solar costs

The estimated cost to install solar at your house is $19,706. We calculated this because we think your electricity usage for the year is about 10850 kWh, and a 6.44 kW size solar system on your roof would replace 100% of your usage. We are using an estimated cost of $4.16/W, which we get from Tracking The Sun.

Current electricity costs

The current electricity costs for Pacific Gas & Electric Co are 33¢/kWh. So, by replacing 100% of your usage, you’ll save $3,533 throughout the year. If the costs of electricity stay the same, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 5.58 years. If the costs of Pacific Gas & Electric Co electricity rise 3%, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 5.42 years.

Solar production throughout the year

Solar installed at your house would generate different amounts of electricity during different months. We estimate that your production would vary from a high of 1110 kWh in August, to a low of 620 kWh in December. For the entire year, we estimate that your 6.44 kW sized system would produce 10850 kWh.

Net metering and Incentives

The state of California generally uses Energy Export Credit Rate and Full Retail Rate for net metering. This means that when you produce more electricity than your house uses, the utility will pay you Energy Export Credit Rate and Full Retail Rate for the extra electricity.
