Solar API では、国立再生可能エネルギー研究所(NREL)のデータを使用して、電力網に送電される電力の割合を推定します。推定値は、太陽光発電の総発電量と家庭の総電力消費量の関係に基づきます。家庭の電力消費量と比較して太陽光発電設備からの電力が大きいほど、電力網に送電される太陽光発電の推定値は大きくなります。
Solar API では、屋上太陽光発電パネルを設置した場合に見込まれる光熱費の節約額も計算します。実際の節約額は、さまざまな理由で予測された金額と異なる場合があります。

It predicts electricity exported to the grid based on solar production versus household consumption, using NREL data. Potential utility cost savings are calculated, but they are subject to variables such as tree growth, utility rate changes, and policy shifts. The API uses data from diverse sources including NREL, Meteonorm, Clean Power Research, EnergySage, and government agencies. It factors in sunlight, installation size, space, and panel specifications to determine technical potential, which is subject to change.\n"]]
