Solar Design Punjab


Energy Usage

Understanding your household's energy usage is essential for sizing a solar system in Punjab. Whilst typical Punjab households consume 15 kWh daily, homes with good insulation and modern appliances often use far less energy.

Lowering energy usage before solar installation—via improved insulation and efficient appliances—often reduces required system size and enhances financial returns.

Typical energy usage per person per day in Punjab:

Low (Efficient)
~3 kWh
Medium (average)
~4 kWh
High (intensive)
~6+ kWh

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

Solar System Sizing

A 3.9kW solar system would typically cover your average daily electricity consumption. Sizing your system between 5.9kW and 7.9kW accounts for daily and seasonal variations in solar generation.

A 6.6 kW system in Punjab generates approximately 28.9 kWh daily on average, with seasonal variation from 3.59 kWh/kW/day in December to 4.85 kWh/kW/day in April.

1 kW 20 kW

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

A 6.6 kW system in Punjab 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 Punjab


Solar Battery Sizing

Without battery storage, a 6.6 kW system in Punjab achieves approximately 50% energy self-sufficiency, with the remaining 50% supplied by the grid. Including a 10 kWh battery typically raises annual self-sufficiency to around 99%, with grid reliance dropping to 1%.
