TOTAL System Energy PRODUCED:

TOTAL System Energy CONSUMPTION:

*TOTAL System EXCESS Energy:

kWh Year

Excess Energy field MUST be Positive, if not, increase Solar or other Energy production, more Energy production reduces the break-even period quicker !

*Enter the Energy you could sell via P2P Energy Trading:

kWh Year

In the Red P2P field above, Enter no more than is in the System Excess Energy field, this will deduct the kWh from System Excess Energy field.

NB: You must have Battery Storage, to be able to On-sell energy to a Bespoke Retailer !

TOTAL System Cost:

$ Calculate Equipment cost at Exchange rate!

Total Yearly Power Production Cost:

$ NB: Energy storage is required to Self-consume all your generated energy.

Payback Time:

Before profit, includes System cost, less any Rebates, Credits & Fuel cost.

TOTAL Yearly Savings/Income:

$ After the break-even period, includes Solar savings, Feed-in and Harvest Credits.

Will your electricity savings pay for Financing your Micro Power Grid ?

YES, if you add a year to the 'PayBack time' and $1'000 for installation, your Monthly repayment should be less then your Power bill !

The larger your Energy storage the more secure and less chance of you having a black-out.

# Approx. product costs to become totally independent of the state grid.

* Only if more power is generated than consumed, this calculator will reduce your Payback Time further !
