Residential solar
A useful solar design starts with your electricity use, roof and future plans. Calibrasia uses those inputs to shape the conversation around system size, inverter choice, panel layout and whether battery storage should be considered now or later.
What shapes the design
Two homes with similar roofs can need very different systems. Consumption, timing, export limits, equipment choices and future loads all change the design brief.
System sizing
Daytime consumption is especially important because solar generation is most valuable when it can be used directly in the property. Larger future loads can also change what makes sense today.
Proposal clarity
A solar proposal should make the important assumptions visible so you can compare options on more than price alone.

Battery storage
A home battery can shift solar energy into the hours when the sun is down, but capacity and configuration should be matched to your generation, household demand, tariff, existing equipment and backup expectations.

Indicative solar and battery configurations can make comparison easier, but the final system still needs to reflect the property's electricity use, available roof space, equipment compatibility and future plans.
