When you look at the photos and videos of the property, you will notice that it is surrounded by trees from all sides. While this is great for keeping the property cool on a hot summer’s day, this can be a big issue for solar generation. Shading reduces your panels’ ability to generate power and the ability for your solar system to provide your home with energy. Why? Because the Sun’s rays are blocked by the leaves and branches, preventing them from reaching the cells on your solar panels.
So, does this mean that solar energy is not viable for properties that are in similar types of surroundings? Not at all!
Technology in the solar industry has come a long way. One of the products that we love working with is Enphase microinverters. Microinverters are connected to each solar panel and make each panel work like an independent solar system. This means that even if a few panels slip into the shade or experience defects, the remaining panels keep performing and generating energy. This is unlike the traditional string inverter systems, where if one panel has a glitch, the whole system can stop producing power.
Enphase IQ Microinverters use breakthrough Burst Mode™ technology to capture more energy in low-light conditions, such as when there are shadows or clouds passing over the solar array. Therefore, we used Enphase microinverters for this installation, as it would ensure the solar system gets the best yield possible from the Sun rays that hit different parts of the roof.
