Technical FAQs 4

What wattage should a solar panel be?

For most residential solar panels, this typically ranges between 250W and 400W. Here’s where it gets tricky: wattage isn’t everything. Sure, a higher wattage sounds like a win, but if your home is bathed in sunlight year-round, even a 250W panel can perform like a champ.

How do you calculate solar panel wattage?

Divide the average daily wattage usage by the average sunlight hours to measure solar panel wattage. Panel output efficiency, energy usage, sunshine exposure, system capacity, panel types, and materials all impact the calculation.

How do I calculate how many solar panels I Need?

You can calculate how many solar panels you need by dividing your yearly electricity usage by your area's production ratio and then dividing that number by the power output of your solar panels. To put it simply: Number of panels = annual electricity usage / production ratio / panel wattage

How many kW solar panels do I Need?

As we calculated earlier, the California household needs a 7.2 kW system to cover its electricity needs. A comparable household in Massachusetts needs a 9.9 kW system. So, in less sunny areas like Massachusetts, you might consider choosing highly efficient solar panels to maximize your energy output per square foot.
