is there any software that takes user kwh and tell how much save due to battery and solar

[anees ur rahman]

helllo i want to show how much customers can save due to solar and solar + battery is there is any way to show it?
i see aurora can not do it

For just solar there are lots, and Aurora can certainly do it. But I think you mean one that can also do battery.

Energy Toolbase

Solargraf has promised but not come through yet.

In most of the jurisdictions I deal with batteries do not contribute to the economics of solar distributed generation. YMMV.

There are exceptional situations like Hawaii that combine sky high fuel prices with stressed infrastructure where battery makes sense, but you general observation is correct.
The amortized lifetime cost of the battery makes it hard to justify purely on an energy cost basis.

California is probably going to join the Hawaii category next year. Which means the software companies are not keeping up.

When there's a threefold difference between peak and off peak rate and a 5-6 fold difference between the peak rate and the cost of rooftop solar production, batteries can start to matter a lot.
