The first step is to determine the average daily solar PV production in kilowatt-hours. This amount is found by taking the owner’s annual energy usage and dividing the value by 365 to arrive at an average daily use. This will tell us how much energy we will need on a daily basis. For example, a residence has an annual energy usage of 6,000 kWh.
A formula is available for calculating the size of the solar PV array. The variables are electrical energy usage, peak sun-hours (PSH), and system derate factors. The first step is to determine the average daily solar PV production in kilowatt-hours.
Estimates the energy production of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) energy systems throughout the world. It allows homeowners, small building owners, installers and manufacturers to easily develop estimates of the performance of potential PV installations. Operated by the Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC.
The higher the quantity of voltage, the more pressure there is to push the electrical current. The total amount of power produced by a solar module is measured in watts (W). Power (measured in Watts) is calculated by multiplying the voltage (V) of the module by the current (I).
Of the various types of solar photovoltaic systems, grid-connected systems --- sending power to and taking power from a local utility --- is the most common. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) (SEIA, 2017), the number of homes in Arizona powered by solar energy in 2016 was 469,000.
Assuming the owner plans to install the array on the south-facing roof of their residence, a general rule is one kilowatt (1 kW) of solar PV module will fit in 100 square feet of space, or 10 watts per square foot. A typical residential roof will have plumbing vents, and may include a sky light, or air conditioning system mounted on it.
