How Should Solar Panels Be Placed?
No matter how advanced the technology of solar panels is with today's technology, it occupies a large area on your roof. If you have a villa or commercial business, your roof area is very important for the number of panels required to meet your consumption. In order for the calculations made on paper to be concluded correctly, a correct layout plan should be made. Otherwise, an incorrect layout may cause us loss in terms of cost. Therefore, our project unit needs an architectural project for a correct study.
If possible, we need your architectural project in .dwg format drawn with Autocad program. Based on this, we make a preliminary study of how many solar panels we can fit according to the slope and angle of your roof. If necessary, we will prepare a presentation for you with three-dimensional 3D studies. Aesthetics is very important especially in systems made for villas. We pay close attention to this. Considering the geographical position of Turkey, it is located between 36o-42o North latitudes and 26o-45o East longitudes. Due to this location of Turkey, placing the solar panels towards the south makes the panels work more efficiently.
Well, we determined the number and direction of our solar panels, but what angle should the panels be at so that we can get the highest efficiency? Why is this angle so important? Although we are careful with the directions in the calculations, panels placed at an incorrect angle can harm us. The simplest is that they cannot receive the sun's rays efficiently or the panels cast shadows on each other, causing a loss of efficiency. Therefore, the angle calculation we will make on solar panels directly affects us. If the solar panels are placed in a flat position in snowy areas, the falling snow will accumulate on the solar panels and cause the panel to be disabled, or it will cause a decrease in efficiency by staying on the panel of rain water. In these cases, we will either clean the top of the panel ourselves or let the efficiency decrease.
If we placed the solar panels in an inclined way instead, the falling rain and snow would automatically slide over the solar panels , which would have saved us some trouble. These things were beneficial for us in terms of physicality, but also in terms of energy, which is as follows; Due to the geographical location of our country, the angles of the solar panels we will use should be between 20 and 30 degrees regionally so that we can catch the rays coming from the sun vertically.
Of course, this situation may vary depending on the place and floor to be installed. If we have a flat floor, the desired angle can be given to the panels with special profiles, but this is not so simple on an angled surface, for example on roofs. Our project unit offers you system demands with the most efficient and optimum cost. Due to the high cost of the project and a wrong system, it can harm everyone materially and morally.
It should not be forgotten that an unlicensed generation plant will be installed on your roof. Correct project and engineering is very important in this system, which has high voltage energy.
