How it works
From sun position to kWh
For each of 8,760 hours of a typical meteorological year, we transpose horizontal irradiance onto your tilted roof using sun position, decompose direct and diffuse light, then derate for module temperature and your declared system losses.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does brand-neutral mean here?
The yield model uses your location, weather data and technical inputs such as capacity, orientation and losses — not a manufacturer or product selection. It estimates yield; it does not rank products or recommend a purchase. Any advertisements shown are not product recommendations from the calculator. The estimate is for orientation and does not replace site-specific planning.
