Using this map, determine the zone in which
your installation will be located.
IDENTIFY YOUR AVERAGE DAILY ENERGY CONSUMPTION
To identify your average daily kilowatt hours/ day (kWh/day) consumption, review your last 12 monthly electric bills. Most likely, your bill will show monthly kWh usage. Simply add the monthly kWh usage for all 12 bills and divide the total by 365.
DETERMINE YOUR AVAILABLE SPACE
To determine the approximate available space, make rough measurements of the length and width of your roof, or ground space. The amount of available space will dictate the maximum size of the system to install.
100912
Use the chart below to determine the number of MyGenflex blocks you will need to meet your average daily energy consumption. Each block will require approximately 77 square feet of available space.
Average Daily Energy Production (in kWh/day)
of 1 (980 watt) MyGenflex block by sunlight zone
ZONE 5 ZONE 4 ZONE 3 ZONE 2 ZONE 1
4.62 4.28 4.13 3.85 2.78
Example: Step 1 = Zone 3 Step 2 = 16.52 kWh average daily consumption Step 3 = 400 square feet available
Blocks needed : 16.52/4.13 = 4 Space required: 4 x 77 sf = 308 sf < 400 sf space available
WORK WITH YOUR MYGEN DEALER
Now that you have an idea of which system may work best for you, discuss the MyGenflex system with a dealer. A My­Genflex dealer is fully qualified to help you through the selection process as well as make sure you stay within your budget.
