How much roof area do I need for 1 kW of solar?

Plan on about 10 square metres of unshaded roof per kilowatt, then confirm with a site survey.

A working rule is 10 sqm (about 100 sqft) of unshaded, structurally sound roof per kW of modules.

Obstacles, parapets, walkways, and north-facing pitches reduce usable area. The roof-and-bill calculator caps system size by the area you enter.

Higher-watt modules can reduce count, not always area, because packing and access still apply.
