Notes on Calculations
- Calculations assume an average of 5.5 peak sun hours per day in Zambia.
- System efficiency is estimated at 80% to account for heat, dirt, and inverter losses.
- Cost estimates are indicative turnkey EPC averages (including panels, inverters, mounting, and labor). Actual costs vary based on battery storage requirements, site conditions, and premium equipment choices.
- ZESCO tariff rates are approximations and may not reflect your exact current tariff tier or industrial demand charges.
- Conversion rate used: 1 USD = 26 ZMW.
