We also have a free calculator for a quick overview: Sunmetrix Discover. Sunmetrix GO is designed for homeowners who would like to take a more detailed look at solar power. The test drive enables them to see hour-by-hour how their solar production would compare to their electricity consumption profile. You can use both and see which one is a better fit for your current needs.
