Estimated System Performance

Based on a solar panel output of 560W and an average of 6.5 hours of useful sunlight from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, this system is estimated to produce a significant amount of clean energy daily. Taking into account factors like weather, shading, and system efficiency, a conservative estimate would be:

Daily Production: $10\text{ panels}\times 560\text{W/panel}\times 6.5\text{ peak sun hours}=36.4\text{kWh/day}$

This is an estimate, and actual performance may vary based on your specific location, roof orientation, and weather conditions.
