The electricity consumption is calculated based on the average price of electric power for households in Latvia (EUR/kWh) according to Eurostat data in the second half of 2021.

KWh

The recommended power of solar panels to be installed has been calculated on the assumption that your consumption of electric power during summer months matches the average monthly electricity consumption. To calculate the optimum power of solar panels, experts of the field recommend taking into account the consumption of electric power in summer months so that the amount of electric power produced would cover the amount of electric power consumed. The estimated amount of electric power produced by a 1 kW solar panel per month (during summer period) is approximately 130 kWh.

Based on information provided by experts of the field, the estimated purchase and installation cost of a 1 kW panel is approximately 1600 EUR but the expenses may vary substantially from customer to customer depending on the place of installation, type of solar panels and the power required.

Loan possibilities

The solar panel loan calculations are indicative and may be subject to change after you fill out the application and submit all the necessary data.
Calculations regarding your existing electric power figures are approximate and have been made based on various previously mentioned assumptions/average figures on the market. The solar panel purchase and installation cost and profitability calculations are indicative and may vary substantially from customer to customer, as well as depending on the electrical power market situation. They don’t include possible future payments in connection with operation and maintenance of solar panels. Calculations about the estimated long-term savings in electricity payments assume that the price of electricity and the payments associated with production and usage of electricity will be constant in the coming 25 years.

Basis for the calculation

Your saving

Average amount of electricity bill per month
0€
Estimated amount of electricity bill after installation of solar panels Assuming that the household directly (without transmitting to networks) consumes 50% of all the produced power on the average per year, saving in the whole cost of directly consumed electricity is achieved (incl. the distribution service and the mandatory purchase component (OIK)). The saving is lower for the remaining produced electricity that is transmitted to the network and used for own consumption within a year because of the cost of the distribution service assuming that they account for 35% of the total price of electricity. The estimated amount of electric power produced by a 1 kW solar panel per year is 1050 kWh (10-140 kWh per month depending on the time of year).

Estimated saving in electricity payments during operation of solar panels (25 years) The lifetime of solar panels normally exceeds 25 years. Moreover, the operating efficiency of panels in the 25th year remains at 80% or more.
