How this illustration is calculated
Assumptions: 400 W per panel; 2 kWh per panel per day; 30 days per month; household demand of 900 kWh/month; ₹8 per kWh.
Monthly generation = panels × daily generation per panel × days. Solar offset = the lower of monthly generation and household demand. Savings = solar offset × the assumed tariff. Generation above demand earns no export credit in this model.
Illustrative educational model, not a bill quote, system design or service commitment. Actual generation and savings depend on sunlight, shading, system losses, self-consumption, export credits, local tariffs and net metering. Fixed charges and installation costs are excluded.
