How we calculate

Real data. Your address.
30 seconds.

Every savings estimate Sol Country shows is based on verified government and utility data sources — not national averages or marketing numbers.

Where the data comes from

Government and utility data —
verified and updated continuously.

SOLAR POTENTIAL
Satellite-based solar irradiance data from a US Department of Energy research laboratory — the same source used by professional installers.
ELECTRICITY RATES
Real-time utility rate data from the US Energy Information Administration — your actual utility, not a state average.
INCENTIVE PROGRAMS
Federal, state, utility, and local incentive data from a DOE-funded national incentive database updated daily.
LEGISLATION AND PROPERTY DATA
Real-time state legislation tracking and property data combined to determine what's legal and available at your specific address.

Sol Country integrates additional government and commercial data sources to complete your analysis. Full source details are available to verified research and press contacts at info@solcountry.com.

What Sol Country calculates

Personalized to your address —
not a national average.

01
SOLAR POTENTIAL
Roof orientation, tilt, shading, and local sun-hours modeled at your address — not your state average.
02
UTILITY RATE
Your actual utility's current residential rate, blended with realistic projected rate increases over the system's life.
03
STATE LEGISLATION
What's legally allowed at your address — HOA carve-outs, balcony solar rules, net-metering policy, and interconnection.
04
AVAILABLE INCENTIVES
Federal tax credits stacked with your state, utility, and local rebates — only programs you actually qualify for.

Estimates are projections based on the data sources above and reasonable assumptions about future utility rates, system performance, and program availability. Actual savings depend on installer quotes, financing terms, equipment, and changes to incentive programs or rates. Sol Country LLC does not provide tax, legal, or financial advice. Always verify with a licensed installer and your tax advisor before purchase.
