Assumptions: kWp = yearly use ÷ zonal yield. Modules = kWp × 1000 ÷ Wp, rounded up. No shading and no extra performance-ratio cut.

Understand this estimate

Panel count is rounded up. Matching annual energy does not mean daily independence: production and consumption may occur at different times. Regional yield is estimated; you can replace it with a local value.
