Solar Panel Payback And Savings Calculator
Solar Panel Payback And Savings: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers system size (kWp). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.
Solar Panel Payback And Savings Calculator is a planned calculator in the technology section of Super Calculator, covering crypto mining and energy.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: system size (kWp), location (lat/long), orientation (deg), tilt (deg), installed cost (currency), incentives (currency), retail tariff (currency/kWh), export rate (currency/kWh) and self-consumption (%).
Outputs: annual generation (kWh), annual savings (currency), simple payback (yr), 25 year net present value (currency) and internal rate of return (%).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Annual generation equals system size in kilowatts peak times the local specific yield in kilowatt hours per kilowatt peak per year times the performance ratio, adjusted for orientation and tilt. Savings equal self-consumed generation times the retail tariff plus exported generation times the export rate, and payback equals net installed cost after incentives divided by annual savings.
