What documents should be included in a solar roof plan?

How do you calculate the cost of a photovoltaic array?

Photovoltaic modules are usually priced in terms of the rated module output ($/watt). Multiplying the number of modules to be purchased (C12) by the nominal rated module output (C13) determines the nominal rated array output. This number will be used to determine the cost of the photovoltaic array.
