Micro-inverters at Work for this Harbeson, Delaware Home
This Harbeson, Delaware homeowner wanted solar to cut down on their energy bills and help save the environment from harmful carbon emissons.
Their wooded lot posed some challenges for solar efficiency, however, Flexera was able to determine exact locations impacted by shading with a shading study. By carefully calculating shade patterns throughout the year, Flexera was able to place panels in unobstructed areas for higher productivity.
As an extra precaution, the homeowner opted to move to a solar panel array managed by micro-inverters. This allows each panel to operate independently from the others. In the event a tree grows enough to shade a small portion of the array, the system would experience minimal production impact.
The monitoring system which comes with the system will also indicate any performance issues due to shade or any other factors so they can be remedied quickly.
Roof mounted solar power; 4,928 DC Watt grid tied photovoltaic array
