How we calculate it

Input kWh × cycles × (round-trip efficiency × peak rate − charging rate). Assumes all discharged energy displaces peak purchases. Excludes battery ageing, financing and maintenance.

Results describe the scenario you enter. They are estimates, not a quote or a guaranteed reduction in your utility bill.
