Solar photovoltaic output depends on orientation, tilt, and tracking
Financial incentives, renewable portfolio standards, cost declines, and improvements in system performance have led to more customer-sited solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, especially in states like California. Because PV panels are able to capture more solar energy when they are pointed directly at the sun, installers may configure systems to optimize output by adjusting the orientation and tilt of a system, or using mechanisms that track the sun as it traverses the sky….Read More
