Peshawar solar estimate at a glance
This shared model uses 5 peak-sun hours per day, a 75% performance ratio, 55% direct self-consumption, Rs. 60/unit retail value, and Rs. 8.13/unit export credit. These are illustrative assumptions, not an official flat PESCO tariff. Enter the actual units from your bill, then ask your installer to recalculate savings using your agreement rates and measured daytime load.

Local sizing notes
What changes in Peshawar
Peshawar uses a 5 peak-sun-hour planning default. If backup is the main goal, system size and bill savings answer only part of the question. Write down the circuits and hours you need during an outage, then check whether daytime charging can replenish the battery while those circuits continue running.
Dust, roof access, parapet shade, and security of outdoor equipment should be reviewed during the site survey.

Net billing
PESCO savings logic
PESCO customers should estimate direct use and exported units separately. A battery may be justified by backup need even when pure payback favors on-grid.
The calculator separates direct savings from export credit because imported units and exported units have different cash values. This is why two Peshawar homes with the same kW size can have different payback.
Site survey
Evidence to request for a Peshawar roof
Use your own bill, roof photographs and operating schedule to turn these local checks into a written design. Ask for the evidence behind each proposal before comparing total prices.
Write a critical-load schedule in watts and hours
List fans, lights, fridge, internet and any pump separately, with simultaneous power and required runtime. Ask for usable battery energy after the reserve setting and conversion losses, plus the inverter's continuous and surge limits. Battery nameplate kWh alone does not guarantee a backup duration.
Check recovery after a low-generation day
Ask the installer to show a winter or cloudy-day energy budget: household direct use, battery charging and any permitted grid charging. Record the reserve setting and who can change it. More battery capacity needs enough charging energy; it cannot compensate indefinitely for a shaded array.
A comparison to make before you buy
For a Hayatabad home prioritizing fans, lighting and a fridge, compare a dedicated essential-circuit backup with a whole-house backup. Require an explicit load schedule and winter recharge plan for both. The payback table covers the modelled electricity benefit; it does not place a cash value on avoided interruptions.
Quote checklist
Before you sign a Peshawar solar quote
Keep every installer on the same scope. Otherwise a cheaper quote may simply be missing protection gear, stronger mounting, monitoring, battery wiring, or PESCO paperwork.
1
Confirm the PESCO filing scope, fees, drawings, testing, inspection, and bidirectional meter timeline.
2
Ask for panel brand, exact model, wattage, serial verification, product warranty, and performance warranty.
3
Require inverter make, model, warranty channel, monitoring access, surge protection, earthing, and breaker details.
4
Separate panels, inverter, mounting, protection gear, battery, labor, and net-billing filing into line items.
5
Ask Peshawar installers about battery sizing, critical-load wiring, inverter protection, monitoring, and PESCO application handling.
FAQ
Peshawar solar calculator questions
Answers to local planning questions before you request a quote.
How should backup hours be checked for a Peshawar home?
Use simultaneous load power, runtime, usable battery energy, reserve settings and inverter limits. The battery's nameplate size alone is insufficient.
Can a bigger battery solve a low-sun problem?
It increases storage but still needs enough recharge energy. Compare loads and charging on a winter or low-generation day before increasing capacity.
Official sources
Verify the application and generation assumptions
Use the original utility sources for application rules, fees and approval steps. The sun-hours and price bands on this page are this site's planning assumptions; they are not an official tariff or a measured local yield dataset.
PESCO official net-billing portal
PITC lists PESCO among its supported utilities and links applications, tracking, NEPRA regulations, contact information and transformer checks. Read the current notices before a new application or capacity change.
Check monthly yield in Global Solar Atlas
Select your roof's location and compare monthly PVOUT for the proposed orientation and tilt. The Atlas model excludes building and vegetation shade, so a local shade survey is still needed. Its kWh/kWp yield is a different quantity from this calculator's peak-sun-hour input.
