Technical FAQs 4

What is a rooftop solar photovoltaic system?

A rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system uses solar panels mounted on the roof of a building to convert sunlight into electricity. Rooftop solar systems rely on the photovoltaic effect, where cells generate electricity in response to sunlight.

Can solar panels be installed on a roof?

By placing panels on a rooftop, solar panels are optimally exposed to sunlight and produce enough electricity to power homes and buildings. First, a group of solar panels is installed on a roof, typically at an angle to absorb maximum sunlight.

Are solar panels bad for your roof?

Rooftop solar installations come with their own set of problems that shorten the lifespan of the system, like the fact that the holes made in the roof to attach the racking are prone to leaks, and the limited airflow between the solar panels and the surface of the roof increases the likelihood of ‘hot spots’ forming.

What is the best roof for solar?

The ideal roof for solar has these characteristics: Flat roofs offer flexibility to orient panels optimally using tilted mounting systems, though this reduces the number of panels that can be installed due to spacing requirements to prevent shading. Even partial shading can significantly impact solar production.
