There are many factors involved in determining savings such as utility rate, roof orientation, shading, available roof space for equipment, and energy usage habits. The amount of money that your solar electric system can save you depends on the size and number of your photovoltaic modules and the specific geographic conditions of your site.

Thermal collectors produce about 4x as much energy per square foot than PV collectors and can cost about 1/3 to 1/2 less than an equivalent sized PV system. So, if you combine the 2 technologies, you can produce the same amount of energy, but it will cost you less to do so! And unlike PV panels, thermal collectors never decrease their energy output as they age!
