Solar Panel kWh Calculator

This solar panel kWh calculator is designed to help you quickly estimate the amount of electricity (in kilowatt hours kWh) that a solar panel system can produce on a daily and annual basis. By simply entering the power of the solar panels in kilowatt kW, the number of hours of effective sunlight per day, and the percentage efficiency of the system, you can get an intuitive estimate of your power output.

How to use the solar kWh calculator

Using our solar panel kWh calculator is very easy, just follow the steps below:

  1. Enter the solar panel power: First, enter the power of your solar panel in kilowatts (kW) in the "Solar Panel Power (kW)" field. Make sure that you enter the value correctly.
  2. Enter Daily Effective Sunlight Hours: Next, enter the average number of hours of effective sunlight per day in your area in the "Daily Effective Sunlight Hours" field. This number may vary depending on geographic location, season, and weather conditions.
  3. Enter System Efficiency: Enter the percentage efficiency of your solar system in the "System Efficiency (%)" field. This typically includes the efficiency of the solar panels, the efficiency of the inverter, and the efficiency losses of any other system components. For reference, a typical solar system efficiency may range from 10% to 20%, but the exact value depends on your system configuration.
  4. Click Calculate: After completing the above inputs, click the "Calculate" button. The calculator will automatically calculate and display the estimated daily and annual power output (in kWh) based on the information you have provided.
  5. View results: After clicking on "Calculate", you will see two figures in the "Results" area below: one for the estimated daily power output (daily energy) and the other for the estimated annual power output (annual energy). These numbers will help you understand how your solar panel system will perform on different time scales.

Please note that the results provided by this calculator are estimates based on the data you enter and general assumptions, and that actual power output may vary depending on a variety of factors (e.g., weather conditions, system maintenance status, etc.). Therefore, always consult a professional solar system installer or energy consultant before making any important decisions.
