It all depends on your location, current electric usage, future plans, and the direction your panels are placed. Thankfully, we have a super smart calculator that will give you an accurate size recommendation based on your location, usage, and desired production.

You will need the three primary components. Panels (for energy collection), inverters (for energy conversion), and storage (ideally a battery but grid storage will work if budget is tight). Beyond that the rest of the components are system dependent. There is the mounting hardware which will depend on where the equipment is installed (ground, roof, RV etc.), conduit (the length will depend on the system), a manual disconnect switch (this will depend on your state but we always recommend it for safety and maintenance), and some optional components like a charge controller.

With the right sized system and batteries you can still be independent from the grid with solar. With our calculator or a consultation we can find the perfect system for your location.
