How is a PV system planned?
Before purchasing a PV system, the question of the right size arises. The first step is to answer a few basic questions. It's good to be able to count on the support of professionals.
The following questions must be clarified in advance:
- What will the PV system be used for (own consumption vs. feeding into the grid)?
- What is the personal electricity requirement per year?
- Where is the PV system located (north or south)?
- How is the PV system orientated (position and orientation of the roof)?
- What surface area is available and how should the solar modules be laid out (lengthwise or crosswise)?
Various online tools are available to support correct planning. As a company with many years of experience in the solar industry, Retesol offers its customers a suitable tool for planning with the Solar.Pro.Tool. From planning, starting with the building definition, through design and string planning, to yield simulation and result evaluation - the Pro-Tool can do everything in one application! Free training courses to introduce the tool are held monthly in the form of webinars. Further information.
Our support team is also available for all questions relating to the planning of the PV system, delivery of the components and commissioning on site. You can reach it at engineering@retesol.com.
