NEM 3.0 math: exports earn ~$0.06/kWh while grid power costs your rate — a battery shifts midday excess into the evening and captures the difference. Savings shown are energy value only; battery price is set in Pricing. Tap a row to apply it.

Estimates for discussion. Final Propel pricing is confirmed at application; production modeled with NREL PVWatts® for this address's climate.
Model basis & assumptions
Production: NREL PVWatts® v8 (the industry-standard U.S. model), run per roof face at each face's own tilt & azimuth, using NREL's default loss framework — soiling 2%, mismatch 2%, wiring 2%, connections 0.5%, light-induced degradation 1.5%, nameplate 1%, availability 3% (≈11% combined; shading entered separately per site).
Roof geometry & per-panel sunlight: Google Solar 3D aerial model (imagery date shown above). Shading is applied per month from Google Solar's monthly flux raster — this captures low-winter-sun tree and obstruction shading that a flat annual percentage misses.
Battery economics: full 8,760-hour simulation — PVWatts hourly production dispatched against a typical evening-peaked California residential load profile (EV charging modeled overnight, pool pump midday), battery charge/discharge limited by each model's real kW rating, 90% round-trip efficiency, 90% usable capacity; exports valued at $0.06/kWh under NEM 3.0 net-billing (published avoided-cost range $0.05–0.08).
Weather varies roughly ±10% year to year; these are good-faith estimates, not a production or savings guarantee. Final layout, structural and electrical design are confirmed by engineering at permit.
