Existing installation of 20 x 185W solar panels on an East facing roof, 26/10/2011 with no Battery Storage.

The output electricity generation by Solar PV considering the orientation is at maximum on the East facing roof only. During the evening, the consumers have less or no solar generation because of the sun’s orientation from the Solar PV System.

Utility Company: Octopus Energy

Solar PV installation: 26/10/2011. 20*185W Solar PV System.

Solar PV electricity generation 3.7KWp

Recommendation

Roof spaces have potential for South West(SW) orientation of 38 degree. The dimension of the South West facing roof is 6.20m which is at an angle to an adjacent roof space that can accommodate 4 additional Solar PV panels.

The roof space can take 10 additional Solar PV System because it is split array configuration for the Solar PV installation. The roof space has 3 spatial orientation for the solar installation.
