Solar Design Sydney - Ryde


Energy Usage

Understanding your household's energy usage is essential for sizing a solar system in Sydney - Ryde. Most households in Sydney - Ryde use around 25 kWh per day, whilst energy efficient homes can reduce this to roughly half.

Consider reducing your energy consumption first through better insulation and efficient appliances, as this can reduce the solar system size needed and improve your investment returns.

Typical energy usage per person per day in Sydney - Ryde:

Low (Efficient)
~5 kWh
Medium (average)
~10 kWh
High (intensive)
~15+ kWh

Note: Actual usage varies depending on property size, building efficiency, climate, and appliances.

Solar System Sizing

To offset your average consumption, you'd need roughly 6.6kW of solar capacity. We recommend sizing between 9.9kW and 13.2kW for optimal results as solar output fluctuates daily and seasonally.

A 6.6 kW solar installation in Sydney - Ryde typically produces 28.4 kWh per day on average, with seasonal output ranging between 3.41 kWh/kW/day (June) and 4.82 kWh/kW/day (October).

1 kW 20 kW

lightbulb We recommend 6.5 - 8.7kW, generating 50 - 100% more than you use.

A 6.6 kW system in Sydney - Ryde can generate approximately 0 kWh annually based on local sun conditions.

Solar & Energy Savings


Calculate Heat Pump & EV Savings

Electrify your home by replacing gas heating, petrol vehicles, and other fossil fuel appliances with electric alternatives powered by clean solar energy. This delivers significant additional financial savings and substantial carbon emission reductions. Our calculator helps you compare costs and model the financial impact of switching to electric appliances and vehicles.

How Solar Reduces Your Electricity Bills

The calculations below show how your electricity bills change with solar. Your Old Bill of - per month (- annually) is calculated from your total energy consumption multiplied by the grid electricity rate. Your New Bill of - per month (- annually) accounts for solar generation, the percentage you use directly (self-consumption), remaining grid consumption, and feed-in credits for excess energy exported to the grid. This results in monthly savings of - (- annually).

Battery Storage Sydney - Ryde


Solar Battery Sizing

Solar-only systems in Sydney - Ryde typically provide 50% self-usage with a 6.6 kW installation, meaning 50% of your electricity still comes from the grid. Adding a 10 kWh battery increases energy independence to approximately 86% annually, reducing grid reliance to 14%.
