## Hero

Explore a fully synthetic City A estimate and see how each assumption changes the result.

## Process

_A synthetic example, clearly explained_

### A practical path from bill to panels

This City A demonstration keeps the assumptions visible while showing the same straightforward solar process.

1. **Map your usage** — Begin with a monthly bill and a target coverage level. The example keeps both inputs visible so the estimate is easy to follow.
2. **Design the array** — Translate that usage into a panel count, then review the illustrative utility and incentive assumptions before moving ahead.
3. **Complete the install** — The final step shows what an installation handoff could look like; the crew information here is synthetic demonstration content.

## Simulator assumptions

These values are the visible assumptions used by the estimator. They are illustrative and are not a quote, financial advice, utility guidance, or tax advice.

- Utility assumption: Quartz Demonstration Utility at $0.2 per kWh
- Peak sun assumption: 5 hours per day
- Panel assumption: 400 watts per panel
- Performance ratio: 0.75 (75%)
- Installed cost assumption: $3 per watt
- Minimum system size: 6 panels
- Federal credit assumption: 0.25 (25%); this is not tax advice
- State incentive note: Synthetic State A incentives are illustrative only and excluded from the estimate.

## Household profiles

- Compact courtyard home for one or two residents — typical monthly bill $90
- Three-bedroom Quartz Commons home with evening cooling — typical monthly bill $220
- Long single-story Juniper Terrace home with workshop and heat pump — typical monthly bill $340
- Large multi-generational home with a shaded west-facing roof — typical monthly bill $460

## Fictional crew profiles

The following crew records are fictional challenge content, not endorsements or verified business accounts.

- **Quartz Field Team** — 98 installs, 4.7 rating, since 2022. A synthetic two-person team focused on careful roof mapping and tidy conduit runs.
- **Juniper Install Group** — 74 installs, 4.5 rating, since 2023. A fictional crew that documents every step and explains the handoff in plain language.

## Fictional testimonials

The following testimonial text is fictional challenge content, not customer evidence or an endorsement.

- “The City A example made the panel count feel understandable because every input stayed on the page.” — Nia T., Quartz Commons (2025-04-18)
- “I could compare the bill and coverage assumptions without pretending the demonstration was a quote.” — Owen L., Juniper Terrace (2025-05-09)
- “The long Juniper Terrace profile helped me see why the estimate changes as our household uses more power.” — Priya S., Copperfield North (2025-07-22)

## Frequently asked questions

### How many panels does the City A example use?
At a $220 monthly bill and 80% coverage, the synthetic City A assumptions produce 20 panels. This figure is illustrative, not a recommendation for a real home.

### Which utility serves City A?
Quartz Demonstration Utility is a synthetic utility name used only by this demonstration. It is not a verified provider.

### Is the City A incentive real?
No. Synthetic State A incentives are explicitly excluded from the estimate and should not be treated as a real program.

### Can I call the City A crew?
No. The City A crews, testimonials, and contact status are synthetic illustration data and do not represent an operating business.

### What changes the estimate most?
The monthly bill, coverage target, utility rate, sunlight, panel output, and installation cost all affect the illustrative result.
