Estimating the PV System Costs


Using the rough design laid out here, an initial estimation of the PV system costs can be calculated. The costs in the estimation shown here comprise of:

  • Battery inverter costs

  • Battery-storage system and DC fuse costs

  • PV system costs (modules and PV inverter)

  • Generator costs

  • Mounting and installation costs

Due to the variety of options for the systems, not all possible positions can be taken into consideration. Additional positions can be taken into consideration in a more specific calculation.
