You've probably wondered: "Will a 5kW system actually cover my AC usage?" Here's the kicker – solar system sizing isn't just about square footage or number of bedrooms. Last month, a Phoenix homeowner discovered their 8kW array only met 60% of needs because they'd ignored pool pump cycles and EV charging patterns.
You know what's fascinating? Over 23% of U.S. households have installed solar panels as of Q1 2025 – a 40% jump from just two years ago. But why this sudden surge? Let's unpack the real costs of traditional energy first. The average electricity bill hit $198/month last winter, with fossil fuel prices swinging like a pendulum since the 2023 energy crisis.
You've probably heard solar power could save households $1,500 annually. But why did residential installations drop 12% last quarter according to the 2023 Renewable Energy Monitor? Three roadblocks keep tripping homeowners:
Let's face it – solar panels in the USA aren't just for crunchy granola types anymore.

But wait, isn't this supposed to be a feel-good story? Well, here's where it gets tricky.
