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.

Photovoltaics (PV) is the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. The photovoltaic effect is commercially used for electricity generation and as photosensors. In 1989, the German Research Ministry initiated the first ever program to finance PV roofs (2200 roofs). Module performance is generally rated under standard test conditions (STC): of 1,000 , solar of 1.

A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics. The cost of producing photovoltaic cells has dropped because of in production and technological advances in manufacturing. When there is more local generation than consumption, electricity is exported to the grid.
