Enter basic information:
On the calculator page, you will see several key information fields that need to be filled out.
- Annual Electricity Usage: this is the total amount of electricity consumed by your household or individual each year, usually measured in kilowatt hours (kWh). You can get this information from your electricity bill or from your electricity supplier.
- Carbon Factor: Select an estimated carbon factor based on the type of energy source (carbon factors are not fixed values and are often influenced by region, energy type, etc. This calculator only provides an estimate)
- Consider Solar Substitution: Next, you will need to enter or select the percentage of renewable energy, such as solar, that will be substituted for your electricity use. This is usually a percentage that indicates that you have or plan to meet some or all of your electricity needs through electricity generated by your solar system.
Perform the calculation:
Once you have filled in all the necessary information, click on "Calculate" or a similar button. Based on the data you provide, the calculator will calculate the amount of CO2 emissions that could be reduced by replacing traditional energy sources with solar energy.
