As, the main part of the house is orientated with its longest sides facing North and South, the photovoltaic panels are mounted to allow 50% of the panels to face due North and 50% to face due South. This takes advantage of the sun’s tracking just two degrees north of the equator. The roof also has a very shallow 15% slope, which, as the sun at this latitude is almost directly overhead during much of the day, allows greater collection of the solar energy. The installation therefore benefits from exceptional solar collection efficiency throughout the year.
An additional feed-in meter has been installed to enable electricity generated by the installation to be recorded and discounted, while total electricity consumed by the building is still recorded using a standard meter. A wireless data logger linked to the inverter allows easy remote data collection of electricity solar generated on an hourly and daily basis.
