Calculations to determine the equipment that is needed:
Solar:
| 1. Sun hours per day: | |
| 2. Solar panel watts needed (divide your total electricity need by the number of sun hours): | |
| 3. Watts provided by cabin kit | |
| 4. Watts still needed (Line 2 - Line 3) | |
| 5. Number of additional panels to buy (divide Line 4 by the rating of the panels; round up!) |
Wind:
| 1. Wind class | |
| 2. kW-hrs/day needed (divide your electricity need by 1000) | |
| 3. kW-hrs per day expected from XL.1 turbine | |
| 4. Number of turbines needed (divide Line 2 by Line 3; round up!) |
