Commercial solar payback in Roskovec: 5.2 years
A self-consuming 100 kWp array on a commercial roof in Roskovec typically pays back in about 5.2 years. That figure uses Roskovec's specific yield of 1,540 kWh per kWp per year and a commercial tariff near €0.16/kWh, with 70% of generation used on site.
At that yield the array produces about 154,000 kWh a year and saves roughly €17,248 annually against an installed cost near €90,000. Over 25 years the net saving is around €341,200, while avoiding about 53.9 tonnes of CO₂ each year.
Roskovec is in Fier County, alongside Fier, Lushnjë and Patos. Those towns share the same irradiance zone, so payback is similar — the difference is which warehouses and factories still have empty roof. SolarScout lists them with a pre-computed business case rather than a generic "solar is cheap" pitch.

Start with 100 kWp × 1,540 kWh/kWp = 154,000 kWh of annual production on a representative warehouse or factory roof in Roskovec. Apply 70% self-consumption against €0.16 per kWh and you get about €17,248 a year. Divide the €900/kWp installed cost (€90,000 for 100 kWp) by that saving and payback lands at 5.2 years.
This is a worked example, not a quote. Real payback moves with self-consumption, shading, export tariff and installed cost. It is still the right first filter: if a roof in Roskovec cannot beat roughly 5.2 years on these inputs, it is probably not a priority lead.
Roskovec versus the rest of Albania
Relative to Albania as a whole, payback in Roskovec is about 0.5 years faster than the Albania average of 5.7 years. Albania has excellent Mediterranean sunshine. As its commercial and logistics sectors expand, factory and warehouse rooftops are an under-tapped solar opportunity.
That is why outreach in Roskovec should open with the local number — 5.2 years and €17,248 a year on 100 kWp — not a national average that under- or over-sells the roof.
What actually changes payback on a Roskovec roof
Yield is already baked into the 1,540 kWh/kWp zone for Fier County. The bigger swings are usable roof area, daytime load (factories and cold stores self-consume more than empty warehouses) and whether the site pays the full €0.16/kWh commercial rate.
SolarScout estimates roof footprint from satellite and map data and, where Google Solar coverage exists, modelled annual output — so you can rank Roskovec sites by savings instead of guessing from a map pin.
Frequently asked questions
What is the commercial solar payback in Roskovec?
About 5.2 years for a self-consuming 100 kWp rooftop in Roskovec. That uses 1,540 kWh/kWp of local yield and a tariff near €0.16/kWh, saving around €17,248 a year.
How much electricity does 100 kWp produce in Roskovec?
Around 154,000 kWh a year. Multiply the 1,540 kWh/kWp specific yield for Fier County by 100 kWp; shading and orientation can move that figure, which is why SolarScout models each roof rather than stopping at the city average.
Is payback in Roskovec better than nearby towns?
Payback is in the same band as Fier, Lushnjë and Patos because they share the Fier County irradiance zone. The practical difference is the stock of large, unshaded commercial roofs — SolarScout lists those in Roskovec with a pre-computed saving so you can compare sites, not just towns.
