The estimated cost to install solar at your house is $21,869. We calculated this because we think your electricity usage for the year is about 13140 kWh, and a 8.28 kW size solar system on your roof would replace 100% of your usage. We are using an estimated cost of $2.64/W, which we get from Energy Sage.
The current electricity costs for Oncor Electric Delivery are 16¢/kWh. So, by replacing 100% of your usage, you’ll save $2,081 throughout the year. If the costs of electricity stay the same, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 10.51 years. If the costs of Oncor Electric Delivery electricity rise 3%, then your savings will pay for your solar system in 10.20 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 1210 kWh in July, to a low of 890 kWh in December. For the entire year, we estimate that your 8.28 kW sized system would produce 13140 kWh.
