Solar

System information

  • (24) tenKsolar 410 watt modules manufactured in Bloomington, MN.
  • 9840 total watts of electricity = 9.84 kilowatts (kW)
  • Minnesota has an average of 4.6 peak sun hours per day (more than Houston, Texas, and almost as much as Miami, Florida!)
  • 9.84 kW x 4.6 hours = 45 kWh/day (avg)
    There are losses due to wiring and the inverter, so we might expect 85% of this or 38 kWh/day (~ 1140 kWh/month) produced by this solar system in full sun

Real-Time Usage Report

I have an eGauge Data Logger connected to my electrical panel that monitors all electricity generated and consumed in real time:
