There are a lot of factors to consider when determining a home's solar potential. For one, there's the amount of sunlight that will strike the roof and any adjacent objects that may shade the solar panels. Then there's the size of the roof itself, as well as its pitch and the direction it faces. The good news for people with less-than-ideal roofs is they can still maximize their solar potential by using panels that are mounted on the ground. Our experts can assess your home or business using satellite imagery, a site visit or both. The University of Minnesota has a detailed map that can give you an idea of your solar potential.
