Power Bill estimator
The Power Bill Estimator is a tool to estimate how much the average electric bill will be for a given home. It is especially useful for those moving into a new home allowing for the proactive budgeting of family expenses. Knowing how much the electric bill may be, we can determine the ideal solar system size as well as the savings solar can bring.
Let’s do the math!
Add up the total points of your current or soon to come applicable utilities. Once you have your total, find your user rank (modest, average, or high) to check your recommended solar system size.
add your utility points
Family Size: 0.5 point per person
Air Condition & Electric Heater: 1 point per month of use (-0.5 points if home has attic fan)
Swimming Pool: 3.5 points (-0.5 points if you have an alternating pool pump)
Electric Vehicle: 4 points
Electric Appliances: 1 point per large appliance (Refrigerator, stove, oven, hot water heater)
Bitcoin Mining: 3 points
Botanical Heat Lamps: 3 points
Home Insulation: -0.5 points
Quality insulating windows: -1 point
total points
Modest Users = 2-4.5 points
Average Users = 5-7 points
High Users = 7.5-10 points
ESTIMATED UTILITY BILL
Modest Users = $60-150/month
Average Users = $150-$250/month
High Users = $250-$600/month
Recommended Solar System Size
Modest Users = 2.5 - 3.5 kW
Average Users = 3.5 - 6 kW
High Users = 6 - 10 kW
