FAQS 4

What is the best orientation for solar panels?

The ideal orientation of solar panels depends on the orientation of the roof. This is because solar panels are placed on the roofs. To determine the best orientation for your solar panels, your roof should face southwards.

Why is roof orientation and tilt important?

Two critical factors, roof orientation and tilt, play important roles in maximizing the energy that solar panels can capture from the sun. Understanding and optimizing these factors can significantly enhance solar panel efficiency and ensure you can generate the most energy from the installations. Why Roof Orientation and Tilt Are Critical?

What is solar panel orientation?

Solar panel orientation refers to the placement, direction, and angle of solar panels, specifying the cardinal direction the panel faces, which helps it receive direct sunlight throughout the day. The cardinal directions are the north, south, east, or west, and they depend on your location and the path of the sun.

Which roof angle is best for solar energy production?

An angle that matches the latitude of the location generally offers the best year-round potential for solar energy production. The ideal roof orientation for maximizing solar panel efficiency varies by hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, solar panels achieve maximum efficiency when mounted on south-facing roofs.
