How much solar energy can my roof generate?

🏠☀️ How Much Solar Can My Roof Generate? (AKA: Is Your Roof a Secret Power Plant?)

By Infinity Solar USA – Bringing sunshine to your shingles since day one.

So you’re thinking about going solar. You’re dreaming of lower energy bills, shrinking your carbon footprint, and maybe even telling your power company, “Thanks, but I’m good.”
But first, you want to know:
“How much solar can my roof actually generate?”

Let’s break it down—without frying your brain (just your electric bill 😎).

⚡ The Short Answer: It Depends on Your Roof’s “Solar Potential”

Think of your roof as a solar sponge. How much sunshine it can soak up depends on a few key things:

🧱 1. Roof Size

Bigger roof = more panels = more power.
But don’t worry, you don’t need a mansion. Even modest rooftops can pack a punch with today’s high-efficiency panels.

🧭 2. Roof Direction & Angle

• South-facing roofs (in the U.S.) are solar gold.

• East/west? Still great.

• North-facing? Eh… we’ll talk.
  The tilt of your roof also matters. A good angle helps your panels catch rays like sunbathers in July.

🌳 3. Shade, Trees & Chimneys (AKA: Solar Blockers)

If your roof spends half the day in the shade, your solar output will drop. Trees, nearby buildings, chimneys, and even those “decorative” satellite dishes can block sunlight.

☀️ 4. Your Location (Not All Sunshine is Created Equal)

More sun = more power. If you live in Arizona, you’re basically winning. If you’re in Seattle, we can still make it work—but maybe with more panels or higher-efficiency tech.

📊 So, What’s the Real Number?

A typical U.S. home solar system ranges from 5 to 10 kilowatts (kW). On average:

• 1 kW of solar = 4–5 kWh/day (depending on sun exposure)

• So a 6 kW system can produce 700–1,000 kWh/month

But every roof is different. That’s why we offer free solar evaluations with actual production estimates tailored to your home—not some generic calculator from the internet.

💡 The Bright Side?

Even if your roof isn’t “perfect,” we have creative ways to maximize your solar production. Tilt racks, high-efficiency panels, battery storage—there’s always a smart solution.
