What it does
It calculates the power generation and money savings with solar panels on your roof.
How we built it
We started out by trying to figure out how to calculate the efficiency of solar panels. We Built a Webapp using React.
Challenges we ran into
Finding API and formulas for global radiation and sunshine hours.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Building a full working Calculator with accurate results. Creating a beautiful UI that adopts the look and feel of Enpals homepage.
What we learned
We learned a lot about how solar panels and what factors determent solar efficiency.
What's next for SolarCulator
Next would be to add some form validation and maybe better wording.
