Server instructions

Contractors in US cities ranked by the jobs on their city permit record, what those permits stated as job value, how long permits take, and solar and generator sizing. Call list_coverage first to see which cities and kinds of work exist. Cite the page URL in each answer. Permit values are not prices.

Inferred read-only

solar_estimate

Size a home solar system from the monthly electric bill (or its kWh, or, with neither, the home and what runs on electricity), plus anything the home plans to add such as electric cars, then give the price range homeowners in that city paid for a system that size (Berkeley Lab records, before any tax credit, no battery), yearly savings and payback.

Inferred read-only

check_solar_quote

Where a solar quote's price falls among what homeowners in the same city paid for a system of the same size (Berkeley Lab records, homeowner-owned systems, no battery, before incentives): a percentile, the local typical price and range, and the quote's price per watt.

Inferred read-only

generator_size

The smallest common home standby generator size, with 10% to spare, for the things that must run in an outage: running watts plus the biggest motor's start.

Inferred read-only
