5D Solar Calculator
Use the calculator to preview panel count, panel wattage, system size, yearly production, home usage support, and extra power that may be sent back to the grid.
Compare common panel options like 445W, 500W, and 550W for different home sizes.
Estimate system capacity based on the number of panels a customer selects.
Show how solar production can help support daily home electricity usage.
Preview extra power that may be banked or sent to the grid when production is higher than usage.
This calculator is a starter estimate. Final solar design should include roof direction, shading, permit requirements, electrical review, utility usage, and selected equipment.
