Why Solar Savings Estimates Can Differ

Solar savings estimates depend on multiple assumptions and should be treated as projections, not promises.

Your starting point matters

Usage history, current rates, fixed charges and utility billing rules create the baseline. Different bills or periods can produce different comparisons.

System and payment assumptions

Estimated generation, system price, loan fees, lease escalator, battery settings and export credits can materially change a projection.

Ask for transparency

Request a plain-language explanation of assumptions and a comparison showing what utility charges remain. Ask how results would change under different scenarios.
