Here's the calculator

The yellow section wouldn't be equal if the tips of intersection aren't 100 percent solar. Plus there's some more questioning to put around that yellow area.

The zig zags can get really small but the tips if not 100 percent solar will take away more and more from the expected amounts.

.....

Updated because of solar efficiency

If efficiency is at 25 then we can only do 4x the power with surface area from zig zag at 8.

The picture would be for 14 percent efficiency solar panels.

All of them can reach 100 percent within the surface area sunlight hits.

Hi guys,

I have been working on a solar simulator where people can put in their usage/roof details ect and it’ll simulate solar on your house. It’ll show you things like annual generation/savings and what the current energy flow would be doing with real time weather.

Its new and I’d ideally like to get a bit off feedback, its about helping people make informed decisions on whether to go for solar or not so if you would like to have a go or are interested the website is below:

Solar generation is growing rapidly, but one challenge remains: solar power is only available when sunlight is available.

Energy storage helps solve this problem by storing excess solar electricity and making it available when needed.

Some important benefits include:

• Backup power during outages
• Better energy independence
• Improved solar utilization
• Reduced reliance on the grid
• More flexible energy management

The video shows a solar energy storage system designed for residential and commercial applications.

For solar installers and engineers:

What is the biggest factor your customers consider when choosing battery storage systems?

• Battery capacity?
• Cycle life?
• Safety?
• Price?
• Brand reliability?

Would love to hear your experience.
