Here's a Google spreadsheet I made to help me plan my solar journey. I thought I'd share it to help with anyone contemplating installing solar.
Feel Free to make a copy and play around with it.
Fill out the 12 month cost and consumption first. You enter your data anywhere it is green, then fill out the daily generation/consumption data and check any/all checkbox'es for useage.
I've included a sample (my actual useage) so you can see what it looks like filled out.
The savings are based on your avg grid price, but this can be a bit skewed if you are a heavy user during peak hours. It's likely your savings will be higher if you can shift peak useage with solar or have ESS.
Let me know if there are any errors or issues.
Enjoy!
