The estimated cost to install solar at your house is $19,441. We calculated this because we think your electricity usage for the year is about 15090 kWh, and a 6.59 kW size solar system on your roof would replace 63% of your usage. We are using an estimated cost of $2.95/W, which we get from Energy Sage.
The current electricity costs for Georgia Power Co are 15¢/kWh. So, by replacing 63% of your usage, you’ll save $1,426 throughout the year. If the costs of electricity stay the same, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 13.19 years. If the costs of Georgia Power Co electricity rise 3%, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 12.81 years.
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 900 kWh in May, to a low of 660 kWh in December. For the entire year, we estimate that your 6.59 kW sized system would produce 9490 kWh.
The state of Georgia generally uses Solar Avoided Energy Cost Rate and Avoided Solar Cost Rate + Renewable Generation Adder for net metering. This means that when you produce more electricity than your house uses, the utility will pay you Solar Avoided Energy Cost Rate and Avoided Solar Cost Rate + Renewable Generation Adder for the extra electricity.
