How much will your PV system produce? How much can you earn selling it? Fast solar yield calculator with Q1 2026 BFE values. Free, no signup.
Enter the size of your solar system (in kWp) and the expected location-specific yield. The calculator shows in seconds how many kWh your system will produce per year and how much you can earn under each model — classic feed-in, LEG sales to neighbours, or a combination.
Swiss benchmark values: 900–1,200 kWh per kWp per year (BFE 2026 reference). Calculate your exact yield based on system size, location specifics, and self-consumption rate — no signup required.

Traditional feed-in tariffs offer low returns on your solar investment. UpGrid communities allow you to sell directly to your neighbors at better prices with no membership fees, no transaction costs, and no additional charges - creating a win-win situation for both producers and consumers.
We use the official BFE Q1 2026 reference values (~10.27 Rp./kWh feed-in tariff for PV up to 30 kWp) and the typical LEG community rates in Switzerland (15–22 Rp./kWh). The methodology follows the Swissolar standard for yield estimates.
The specific yield per kWp varies by location: eastern Switzerland and mountain areas typically achieve 1,000–1,100 kWh/kWp; the Swiss Mittelland and Ticino often reach 1,050–1,200 kWh/kWp. Optimal orientation (south, 30° tilt) delivers the highest values.
The calculator combines your self-consumption share (typically 20–40% for residential, 10–30% for commercial) with the marketing of the surplus — either classic grid feed-in or direct sales via a LEG. The difference between the two models is often 30–60% more income with LEG.
