  • 1.  PVwatts and project sunroof

    Posted 05-06-2021 09:27 AM
    Good day
                        I am keen on a calculation comparison between project sunroof and PVwatts for a particular solarized roof home. Can anyone give references/report/publications to enlighten me. Thanks and appreciated. - gopalakrishnan solar Advocate at Tampa

    This DOE website provides a few useful tools and resources. Hope this is helpful. https://www.energy.gov/eere/solar/solar-rooftop-potential

    Both are just approximate price calculations. Actual price differs on many factors including type of panel, inverter, roof type, electrical and others. I would recommend trying www.energysage.com for actual quotes from your local vendors for your system. You can then negotiate price.
