How Many Solar Panels Do I Need?
Planning5 February 2023
Determining the right size for your solar system depends on three main factors: your energy usage, your roof space, and the panel efficiency.
1. Analyze Your Bill
We start by looking at your electricity bill to see your annual consumption in kWh. For example, a house using 6,000 kWh/year typically needs a system around 4 kWp.
2. Roof Orientation and Shade
South-facing roofs in Cyprus yield the highest production. We also account for any shading from trees or nearby buildings.
3. Future Needs
Are you planning to buy an Electric Vehicle (EV) or install a heat pump? It's often improved to size the system slightly larger to accommodate future energy needs.
