Learn how to size a solar system for your home with six simple steps, from estimating your energy usage to calculating your solar array size. Statistics showthat most people consume more electricity during the summer and winter, when the A/C or heat is running. Use NREL’s GHI maps to see how many sun hours you can expect to get in your location. From there, we need to add a bit of overhead to account for inefficiencies and degradation rate of the panels.

Here's our step-by-step guide on sizing a solar system that meets your energy needs. Statistics showthat most people consume more electricity during the summer and winter, when the A/C or heat is running. Next, divide your monthly kWh usage by 30 to estimate your average daily kWh usage. Use NREL’s GHI maps to see how many sun hours you can expect to get in your location. From there, we need to add a bit of overhead to account for inefficiencies and degradation rate of the panels.
