methodology & sources

What is modeled — and what is not

Production

1,327 kWh/kW-year planning benchmark. PVWatts-based state planning benchmark.

Installed cost

$3.05/W planning benchmark for Kenosha, WI.

Electricity value ceiling

19.06¢/kWh · EIA residential benchmark for Wisconsin (2026-07).

We Energies rate context

10.03¢/kWh · Rg2 off-peak. This is utility rate-plan context, not a verified solar export-compensation rate.

Utility source: We Energies 2026 Rate Schedule Rg2 tariff · verified 2026-09-29.

Production: NREL PVWatts methodology · Cost: 2026 state / local marketplace benchmark.

Why exact We Energies solar savings stay guarded

CalcuRiver has a calculator-ready utility rate profile for We Energies, but that does not automatically make the same plan a valid solar import/export tariff. Until a solar-specific compensation rule is verified, the calculator shows production, cost and a retail-value ceiling without flattening export compensation to an invented rate.

why this estimate changes

Why this solar estimate changes

Solar value is driven by local production, installed cost, the retail value of electricity you avoid buying, and the compensation you receive for exported energy. CalcuRiver does not assume export credits equal the retail rate unless that utility program is explicitly verified.

Core logic: self-used solar offsets retail purchases; exported solar is valued only under a verified export-compensation rule.
