Your Energy Independence is just a click away!!
Salinas - Residence Case Study:
Customers needs: Reduce $415+ energy bill
Existing PG&E bill: $400+ per month
System Size: 5.46kW
kWh production: 6,660kWh p.a.
Payback: 5.5 years
Energy bill with Solar: $45 per month
The customers needs were to reduce their PG&E electric bills as they
were in excess of $600 per month.
The difficulty with this site, however, was a large stand of eucalyptus
trees which prevented us utilizing the South facing roof. The solution
was to locate the two arrays on the East, South East roof maximising the
production for the owner.
There is a misconception that solar arrays must face south. Obviously it
is ideal but an East facing array will harvest approximately 87% of the
same array facing South. So if a customer really wants to go solar we
just have to size the system accordingly.
The solar pv system installed consisted of 26 210W Schuco solar
panels in two arrays of 13 panels. The two roof mounted arrays
faced East South East.
These arrays were served by one SMA inverter.
The system produces in excess of 6,600kWh per year
and will reduce carbon emissions by 116 tons over the
systems lifetime. That’s equivalent to
147,500 SUV miles.
Their average electric bill is now $45
"We
love our new system!! I think we will do the same for our hot water next
year”
