Calculation

Formula and meaning

Annual vehicle energy demand is compared with available PV surplus to determine the remaining grid energy.

E₍charge₎ = km · consumption / 100 / η · PV share = min(PV surplus, E₍charge₎)

Example and limits

Context

At 15,000 km/year, 18 kWh/100 km, 2,000 kWh PV surplus, and €0.35/kWh, about 67% of charging demand is covered.

PV surplus is treated as an annual energy budget. Hourly matching, storage, seasonal yield, and smart charging control are not simulated.
