Benefits of 1.3x Oversizing

🔋 Optimized for Battery Storage

📈 Enhanced Winter Production

🌥️ Better Cloud Coverage Performance

💰 Increased Energy Independence

💡 Why Energy Storage Matters:

The Problem:

92% of charges are hidden fees
Solar alone doesn't eliminate these
Rates continue to increase yearly
Peak demand charges are substantial

The Solution:

Energy storage reduces peak charges
Minimize grid dependency
Protection from future increases
Complete energy independence

Electricity Rate ($/kWh) Take the total electric bill minus gas and use leftover $ / by kWh to get this number and insert it here.

Daily Energy Usage (kWh) from the last 12 months use the highest number and enter it below.

Peak Power Demand (kW) from the last 12 months use the highest number and enter it below.

System Model you may choose a system or let the calculator choose for you.

System Usage Pick what you are looking for the system will handle your needs if you want to see the other system, uncheck the box and check a different selection once you find what you want then hit apply.

Arbitrage, (Time-of-Use Rate Optimization) This will mainly be the Guardian Elite. It will handle your power and provide 16kWh of Storage to your TOU in most cases, 4PM-9PM. Partial Home Backup, this will be either the Guardian Elite 16kWh of Storage and 15kW of power for limited loads ( all of your 120V circuits and some 240-volt loads )* the more you add in loads the faster the system will drain. A new 125A Load center is required. Full Home Backup, Perfect world NO Utility if done correctly, Eithe the Guardian E2.0 or the Guardian E2 Tower and adding the inverters you want to handle the loads, A new 125A or 225A Sub-Panel is required to move the loads, if you have more then 2 inverters you can do a 400A load center and this is Suggested by SunFusion Energy Systems.

Include Solar PV System, If you need Solar PV Check the box, the system will automaticlly suggest a system size for you based on the above inputs. this will also give you pricing.
