Solar Savings Calculator: How Much Can You Save?

Solar panels can dramatically reduce or eliminate your electricity bills. The amount you save depends on your roof size, local sun hours, electricity rates, and current energy consumption.

This calculator estimates your potential annual and monthly savings from solar panels based on available roof area and average daily sun hours in your location.

The average US household saves $1,000-$2,500 per year with solar panels. In sunny states like California, Arizona, and Texas, savings can be even higher due to more sun hours and higher electricity rates.
