How Much Solar Energy Can My Property Generate?
This depends on several Factors.
- The amount of solar irradiation (Solar Energy) Landing on your property.
- The orientation and angle of the solar panels relative to the sun.
- The surface area of the solar panels.
- How well the invertor is matched to the solar panels. The invertor converts the DC electricity from the panels to mains quality AC electricity.
Whilst in a single hour more solar energy land on the earth's surface than the world uses in a year it does vary from location to location and the time of year.
Carbon Energy Solutions can provide site-specific or area based analysis to assist with the selection of optimum locations in the UK. We can therefore advice on the best geographical locations for solar PV installation. We also offer consultancy on optimising your solar energy production by providing information on the optimum angles and orientation for specific location. With this information we can produce a financial report on the energy savings and income from the feed-in tariffs for individual locations.
