Some things to consider when if in installing solar pv in a new build;

• A southern orientation is ideal 

• East and west facing roofs can still capture over 80% of the energy

• Minimize roof obstructions to maximize PV capacity and aesthetics

• Shading can significantly reduce energy production

• Plan for current and future landscaping, neighboring houses and roof “stick-ups”

• Approx 100 sq. ft. of roof for every kW of PV capacity

• A pitch of 30 degrees is the optimum
