A typical home installing 3000 W solar panels can choose 5 units 550 W solar panels, each 550 W solar panel costs about $72 so a 3000 W solar panel is about $360, which does not include installation costs and other equipment (PV panel mounts, lithium iron phosphate batteries, connectors and related tools, PV cables, battery cables and circuit breakers This does not include the cost of installation and other equipment (PV cables, battery cables and circuit breakers, or even an off-grid solar inverter).
PV panel mounts cost about $180.
The price of the LiFePO4 battery (over 6,000 cycles) is about $711.75.
Connectors and associated tools cost $12.
PV cables cost $60.
Battery cables and circuit breakers cost $150.
The off-grid solar inverter costs $290 USD.
These total about $1,764.
In a grid-tied system, it does not require batteries to store solar energy compared to an off-grid system, so it is cheaper in total at about $1,052.
The hybrid inverter is more complex and slightly more expensive, about $390, compared to the solar inverter in the off-grid system, which feeds back the excess electricity generated by the PV panels to the grid company. And it is more complicated to operate and has higher labor costs, so it totals about $1,900.
Sometimes the price can change depending on your roof configuration, geographic location, and so on. Some areas have subsidies (such as incentives) that are given when you install solar panels.
The amount of electricity that can be generated by a 3000W solar system varies depending on the region and climatic conditions. In most cases, a 3000W system produces 300~500KWh of electricity per month, which can save a lot of money on your monthly electricity bill. For a normal family, the monthly electricity consumption ranges from 200~800 KWh.
It depends on the size of the family and the electricity usage. 3000W solar panels cannot completely eliminate your electricity bill, so you still need to pay for electricity.
Assuming $0.1 per kWh, a 3000W solar system produces 400KWh of electricity per month, so you can save $40 a month, $480 a year, and you can pay back the cost in about 3-4 years, and then you will only make a profit.
Generally home solar panels are used in off-grid systems, so that after supplying enough power for home appliances, the battery can be charged for later use. If there is enough power, there will be no electricity bill for a short period of time.
After a 3000W solar system powers your home as well as recharges the solar batteries, there is little left over, so there is no need to install a grid-tied or hybrid system that feeds power into the city’s grid company to generate benefits.
However, for large-scale solar systems like 4,000W and 5,000W, the option of a grid-tied system is fine. After your home appliances have reached their load, the remaining power source is delivered to the city grid company, thus generating a benefit, which will offset part of your electricity bill.
Regardless of the type of solar system, when there is not enough solar power to supply your home, you will need to get your power resources from City Grid, which will generate your electricity bill.
Before purchasing solar panels, you need to consider whether you have enough money to cover the upfront costs. After all, it is not a small expense.
Solar leasing can be done in a variety of ways, such as: leasing solar equipment, sharing the right to utilize, etc.
1.1 The most common is leasing solar equipment, which refers to users obtaining photovoltaic equipment through leasing and installing it on their roofs to generate electricity. The user can then also sell the electricity generated by the solar panels to the city grid company. However, you don’t actually own the solar panel and need to pay a fixed fee to the PV equipment owner on a regular basis.
1.2 Sharing the right to utilize refers to the solar energy equipment owner and the user will be solar energy gained revenue in accordance with a certain ratio to share.
It is just like our usual loan, except that it is a loan for purchasing and installing solar energy, and there is no need to pay a large amount of money for installing solar energy system in the early stage, which can be paid at a later stage.
This reduces the risk of our investment and allows us to use the solar system to power our homes even when we don’t have enough money. However, compared to taking a solar system at full cost on your own, it can be a bit of a hassle when it comes to maintenance, management, and other areas.
Although solar systems do not offset the entire cost of electricity and have a large upfront cost, you will pay for themselves over time and benefit from them in the long run. This is especially true for areas with good light conditions and homes that use more electricity each month, where the benefits from this are greatest.
