A first-pass energy workbook that starts with what you want to run, then models daily demand, storage and simplified solar input.
Who it’s for
People at the early planning stage who want a clearer load estimate before discussing solar, batteries and backup power with a competent installer or designer.
What it helps you do
- Build an appliance-by-appliance load inventory
- Estimate daily Wh and kWh
- Separate essential and discretionary loads
- Explore usable battery energy and autonomy
- Compare simplified generation with demand
What you get
- XLSX: Load Inventory
- Battery Planner
- Solar Estimate
- START HERE PDF

FAQ
Will this size my final electrical system?
No. It is not electrical design. Final specification and safety design require competent professional input.
Does the solar sheet guarantee generation?
No. It is a simplified estimate using your assumptions.
Can I model winter separately?
Yes. Use separate scenario copies with different demand and generation assumptions.
