solar power system
How much cost savings could be expected using a solar power system that creates 2100 watts during the sun day?
this house has a 2 yr old Sunny Boy 2100u system installed. 4BR, 2.5 Bath House.
When someone has a 2100-watt inverter installed, that usually means they’re running 1800 watts or so through it, in real life. We can project power generation based on all kinds of assumptions about the panels and your location, but that’s unnecessary. The Sunny Boy should have a log on its display of the total power produced. You can just look at that, and see the total number of kWh’s produced over the last 2 years, or however long it was actually installed. Then, you can multiply that my the cost of electricity in your area.
Also, ask the homeowner (seller?) how much they think they save per year. It will be nuanced by how much power they use, and whether their electric rates are tiered or not. For example, if they use a lot of electricity, they might be paying a lot, maybe 30 or 50 cents a kWh, for those last few kWh’s. If the Sunny Boy is displacing those, then it’s saving an awful lot of money.
