What assumptions are used for system costs?

This calculator uses a baseline estimate of $3,000 per kW to model break-even timelines.

Why does state selection matter?

Each state uses different electricity rates and production factors, which change projected savings materially.

Visible Math Breakdown

annual_bill = monthly_utility_bill × 12 = $2,880
estimated_annual_production = system_size_kw × state_production_factor = 13000 kWh
estimated_annual_savings = estimated_annual_production × state_avg_rate = $4,030
adjusted_savings = estimated_annual_savings × (1 + incentive_adjustment_percent/100) = $4,352
system_cost_estimate = system_size_kw × 3000 = $24,000
break_even_year = system_cost_estimate / adjusted_savings = 5.51

How Savings Forecasts Support Territory Decisions

Install economics should guide territory spend. Higher utility burden and stronger production factors usually improve homeowner savings narratives and help reps convert with less resistance.
