Benefits of your System
1st year savings
We determine your potential 1st year savings by comparing your current annual energy bill with a potential bill after installing solar and the Lunar System.
To calculate your annual energy bill, we assume an energy rate plan based on the major utilities in your state and evaluate your annual solar production profile based on your zip code. For solar owners in California, we use NEM2 tariffs, and for those without solar, we use NEM3 tariffs.
Hours of backup
To estimate the hours of backup, we divide the total usable capacity of the battery by the consumption rate (total annual consumption divided by hours in a year).
Endless backup
Even without grid power, solar and the Lunar System continuously power your home. So long as the sun shines, you can recharge your Lunar System and power on. Increased energy usage or unfavorable weather can, however, affect the duration of your backup power.
Opportunity to earn cash
The Lunar System includes software to participate in Virtual Power Plant programs. You can get paid every time you contribute power from your Lunar System to the grid during emergency load reduction events. Terms and conditions are set by your installer or grid services provider.
Energy bill estimate & solar system size
Energy bill estimate
Based on your state and the approximated square footage of your home, we estimate your total annual energy consumption. We then take the average energy cost in your state to calculate your monthly energy bill. This is an estimate that can be adjusted.
If you already have solar
To suggest your solar system size, we generate a total annual production (based on the average solar irradiance of your state) equal to our estimated total annual consumption of your home. If you manually adjust your solar size to a larger option, we adjust your total annual consumption accordingly, to maintain 100% sizing. If you decrease your solar size, we maintain the total annual consumption we estimated, and an undersized solar is used.
