FAQ about the solar thermal simulation calculation
What is the solar coverage ratio?
The solar coverage ratio shows you how much of your energy requirements can be covered by the sun. Using the simulation calculation, you can determine very precisely how you can significantly reduce your running energy costs in the long term by using clean, renewable solar energy. In addition, you can use our simulation to better understand the long-term savings potential and the financial benefits of investing in a solar thermal system.
Do I see in the calculation how much money I can save with a solar thermal system?
The financial savings from installing a solar thermal system depend on many factors, for example, the purchasing costs and the energy costs of your primary heat source, which are continually changing, usually in the form of an increase in the price of energy. In our heating cost comparison , you can determine the ongoing energy costs including a price increase rate over a longer period of time and thus also get an indication of the cost savings from the solar thermal system. Find out how quickly your investment can be amortised and how much money you can save in the long term by operating such a system.

Is the usage of the simulation calculation free of charge?
The free solar calculator is a service that Solarbayer provides you with as a planning aid, e.g. to determine the economic efficiency or the possible savings from the solar thermal system.
How does the simulation calculation work?
Our simulation calculation takes various factors into account, including the size of your living space, your geographical location, the orientation and pitch of your roof and your current energy consumption. On this basis, we create a customised analysis that provides you with clear insights into the benefits of a solar thermal system.
