According to our calculations, if you used every square foot of roof space on the average U.S. home, you could fit about 97 solar panels on an average roof – resulting in about 31 kilowatts (kW) of solar panels on your roof. [pdf]
[FAQS about How many watts of solar energy are installed on the roof ]
In fact, by averaging different wattages and dimensions of solar panels, we can see that an average solar panel will produce 17.25 watts per sq ft of roof area. By understanding all these 3 key inputs, we can write the equation for theoretically maximum solar rooftop solar system size like this: [pdf]
[FAQS about How many watts of solar power can be generated on the roof]
The average price of a residential solar roof system is between $4.50 and $8.00 per installed watt, making the average 5 kilowatts (kW) system cost between $22,500 and $40,000 before taxes (1 kW = 1,000 watts). A 5 kW system is usually enough to power a regular-sized home. [pdf]
