The electricity consumption is calculated based on the average price of electric power for households in Latvia (EUR/kWh) according to the data from the Central Statistical Bureau (2nd half of 2019). 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 1400 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 the application is filled out and all the necessary data is submitted.
