Site Survey for Solar Suitability
Ever wanted to get rid of you power bill? Living “off the Grid” is good for the Nature and for your pocket. Many European countries have already established a system where you can profit from selling surplus energy back to the power grid. Should you install solar panels on the rooftop then detailed site assessment is necessary in order to evaluate the energy production potential. Suitability assessment for solar applications on residential and commercial dwellings requires knowledge of a number of critical factors pertaining to the position, architectural design and ambient settings of the potential installation sites. These include but are not limited to: Building features, such as general characteristics (building height, architectural value, age, aesthetic criteria), roof configuration (roof form, azimuth, inclination, available surface area), façade characteristics (glazing ratios, building surface materials, orientation), and type of surrounding landscape (height and proximity of vegetation, neighboring dwellings, open space, typical surface reflectance, topography). Green Power Labs will help you design your solar energy solution based on existing resource maps and expert evaluation of your site.
