General Energy Savings Analysis
Solar Savings Analysis
Solar Savings with a 3.5kW Trina Solar Power System
The 3.5kW Trina Solar Power System paired with a 3kW Goodwe Inverter is a great option for households looking to cover part of their energy needs with solar power. Below, we present savings analyses for two different scenarios: a household with 20kWh daily usage and low daytime consumption, and a household with 15kWh daily usage and balanced day/night consumption.
For a more personalised estimate, use our AI Home Energy Analyser to get a detailed breakdown of your potential savings.
Scenario 1: 20kWh/day with Low Daytime Usage
1. Without Solar: 100% Grid Electricity Costs
- Daily Energy Usage: 20kWh/day
- Cost per Day: 20kWh x $0.40 = $8.00/day
- Annual Grid Electricity Cost: $8.00/day x 365 = $2,920/year
2. With a 3.5kW Solar Power System
- Average Daily Solar Generation: A 3.5kW system generates approximately 14.7kWh/day on average in Adelaide.
- Low Daytime Self-Consumption (30%): Since this household has low daytime energy consumption, only 30% of the solar energy will be used directly during the day. This equates to 4.41kWh/day of direct solar use.
- Excess Solar Energy Exported to Grid: The remaining 10.29kWh/day of solar energy will be exported to the grid at $0.05 per kWh.
Savings from Self-Consumption and Feed-In Tariff:
- Daytime Usage Covered by Solar: 4.41kWh x $0.40 = $1.76/day
- Feed-In Tariff Earnings: 10.29kWh/day x $0.05 = $0.51/day
Total Daily Savings:
- Savings from Solar Use and Export: $1.76 (self-consumption) + $0.51 (export) = $2.27/day
- Grid Usage (Remaining): The remaining energy (15.59kWh) will come from the grid at a cost of 15.59kWh x $0.40 = $6.24/day.
- Net Daily Cost: Your daily grid cost is reduced from $8.00/day to $5.73/day thanks to solar.
Total Annual Savings:
- Total Annual Savings from Solar: $2.27/day x 365 = $828.55/year
- Remaining Annual Grid Costs: $5.73/day x 365 = $2,091.45/year
- Net Annual Benefit: With an original grid cost of $2,920/year, your solar system reduces your costs to $2,091.45/year, providing an annual saving of $828.55.
Scenario 2: 15kWh/day with Balanced Day/Night Consumption
1. Without Solar: 100% Grid Electricity Costs
- Daily Energy Usage: 15kWh/day
- Cost per Day: 15kWh x $0.40 = $6.00/day
- Annual Grid Electricity Cost: $6.00/day x 365 = $2,190/year
2. With a 3.5kW Solar Power System
- Average Daily Solar Generation: A 3.5kW system generates approximately 14.7kWh/day on average in Adelaide.
- Balanced Self-Consumption (50%): Since this household has balanced day and night-time consumption, 50% of the solar energy will be used directly during the day. This equals 7.35kWh/day of direct solar use.
- Excess Solar Energy Exported to Grid: The remaining 7.35kWh/day will be exported to the grid at $0.05 per kWh.
Savings from Self-Consumption and Feed-In Tariff:
- Daytime Usage Covered by Solar: 7.35kWh x $0.40 = $2.94/day
- Feed-In Tariff Earnings: 7.35kWh/day x $0.05 = $0.37/day
Total Daily Savings:
- Savings from Solar Use and Export: $2.94 (self-consumption) + $0.37 (export) = $3.31/day
- Grid Usage (Remaining): The remaining energy (7.65kWh) will come from the grid at a cost of 7.65kWh x $0.40 = $3.06/day.
- Net Daily Cost: Your daily grid cost is reduced from $6.00/day to $2.69/day thanks to solar.
Total Annual Savings:
- Total Annual Savings from Solar: $3.31/day x 365 = $1,208.15/year
- Remaining Annual Grid Costs: $2.69/day x 365 = $981.85/year
- Net Annual Benefit: With an original grid cost of $2,190/year, your solar system reduces your costs to $981.85/year, providing an annual saving of $1,208.15.
