#1 - Renewable Energy > For Sale > Re: Can it be done?

I'm sorry Jorge, but you have picked the worst item to solarize. I use 600kWH in the winter and 1300kWH in the summer. I almost don't have enough roof space to power just my Air Conditioner with solar panels. My next home will be one where the main living space is mostly the basement. That would free up enough kWH so a roof with solar panels would be adequate. For now, I changed EACH light to compact fluorescent to save 80% of the "light bill".

Everything I have read says that fixed mounting each panel should face South. They should be tiled to Latitude + 15 degrees. I live in Texas at 30 degrees Lat, so my tilt angle is 45 degrees. It can vary from -15 to + 15 over Lat. to account for winter. Here is good site to find more information http://www.sandia.gov/pv/main.html
