Battery Storage Sizing for Solar Calculator

Calculate the ideal home battery storage capacity (kWh) for your solar system based on daily consumption, desired backup hours, and depth of discharge.

2D stress state at a point. All stresses in MPa.

σx — Normal Stress X (MPa)
σy — Normal Stress Y (MPa)
τxy — Shear Stress (MPa)
⚙ Mechanical Note: Results are based on standard textbook formulas and ISO/AASHTO references. Always verify critical designs with applicable codes (ISO 898, AASHTO 1993, AISC, Eurocode 3) and a qualified engineer.

How It Works

Calculate the ideal home battery storage capacity (kWh) for your solar system based on daily consumption, desired backup hours, and depth of discharge

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Daily consumption — The daily consumption recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Desired backup hours — The desired backup hours recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.
  • Depth of discharge — The depth of discharge recorded for the patient or scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the solar battery sizing result against the clinical thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the daily consumption, desired backup hours, depth of discharge for the patient or scenario you are assessing. Calculate the ideal home battery storage capacity (kWh) for your solar system based on daily consumption, desired backup hours, and depth of discharge. Use the solar battery sizing result to inform your clinical assessment.
