    Solar yield in Singapore

    Estimated annual solar yield is 1500 kWh per kWp per year. A 400W panel is estimated to produce 600 kWh/year, or 1.64 kWh/day.

    Quick estimate. Uses your location and the time of year. Check your roof, shade, and local weather before using it in a quote.

    Your roof orientation

    Choose the direction and slope your panels will actually use. We compare that roof with the ideal south-facing reference for Singapore using the same weather model.

    0° is flat; 90° is vertical. The ideal reference here is 1°.

    Azimuth simply means direction: 0° north, 90° east, 180° south, and 270° west.

    South is the nearest compass direction.

    Annual bill savings

    Average monthly bill value of S$168, based on monthly production and capped to the 600 kWh/month use you entered.

    Electricity use covered

    Will this system fit your roof?

    Keep these inputs while you outline usable roof space and refine the estimate. Compare installers when the roof plan is ready.

    Monthly production breakdown (kWh)

    Quote readinessThis estimate is strong enough for early planning. A supplier quote still needs roof space, shading, inverter limits, battery needs, and installation constraints.
    Planning notes* The panel estimate uses average monthly output; winter and summer production vary. Bill savings are capped at your entered use (600 kWh/month) and do not assume export credits.

    The figures below are an example starting point for Singapore: 12 panels at 400W, about 4.8 kW, and a 600 kWh/month electricity-use target. Review your current panel wattage, panel count, and electricity use in the calculator above before opening the roof planner or comparing installers.

    Example system
    ~4.8 kW

    12 panels for a 600 kWh/month home before roof, inverter, and battery constraints.

    Output per panel

    Annual value at about SGD 0.31/kWh, capped to the electricity use you can actually offset.

    Weakest month

    35 kWh from one 400W panel; check this month before sizing essential loads.

    Roof fit

    Confirm usable roof planes, shading, inverter limits, and battery needs before accepting a final layout.

    Bill fit

    Adjust panel count and monthly use above so savings are capped to electricity you can offset.

    Quote check

    Ask suppliers to show winter output, assumed losses, and any export-credit value separately.

    Monthly output and winter risk

    The calculator is useful when it shows the weak months, not just a flattering annual number. Use the table to check whether winter output still supports the loads you care about.

    Model basis

    The model uses south-facing panels at 1° tilt, true south orientation, and 14% system loss. Typical 600 kWh/month electricity costs are S$92 - S$307 (typically S$184) using 2025 cost data.

    These monthly figures are a quick estimate. Check your roof, shade, and local weather before using them in a quote.
