6kW Solar Systems

Our 6 kW solar systems feature DIY solar kits, which will produce at least 6kW (or 6,000 watts) of power. This translates to approximately 175 to 1000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per month depending on your system choice, location and other factors.

Choose from a selection of 6kW solar kits with string inverters, microinverters and SolarEdge inverters, as well as ground mount options. We sell both grid-tie and off-grid solar kits. Consider hiring a local contractor or installing your own solar panel kit for additional savings!

Frequently Asked Questions About 6kW Solar Systems

How much power can I get out of a 6kW Solar System?

Variables like weather, temperature, the age of your system and whether your panels are heavily soiled can affect how much power your solar system can produce. 

Generally, a 6kW solar system generates about 6,000 watts of Direct Current (DC) power. However, if you account for system losses incurred by the above variables, you could potentially decrease the efficiency of your solar panels by roughly 5%. 

How many panels does a 6kW solar kit contain?

The number of solar panels required to generate 6 kilowatts of energy hinges on the efficiency of your panels. Typically, you would need about 20 panels, but because GoGreenSolar panels are highly efficient, they can do the job with 15 panels.

How much space will the solar panels take on my roof?

A 6kW solar kit from GoGreenSolar requires about 345 square feet of space. 

Solar panels with string converters need to be grouped together and facing the same direction. You’ll want to consider whether this option is the right choice for you or if you’d be best served by solar panels with microinverters. 

Microinverters allow you to place panels in various locations, directions and angles on your roof. This choice will offer you more flexibility if space is at a premium.
