Comprehensive solar planning: weather analysis, peak sun hours, tilt optimization, and power generation estimates
Fetching solar data...
Historical weather averages are essential for effective solar planning, as they inform optimal insulation requirements and HVAC consumption patterns. Colder periods may necessitate additional heating, while warmer months increase cooling demands—directly impacting overall energy costs and solar system sizing.

kWh/m²/day on panel surface at different tilt angles
Peak Sun Hours (PSH) represents the average daily solar energy received per square meter of panel surface. Higher values indicate more solar energy available. Monthly Optimal Tilt adjusts the panel angle each month for maximum energy capture, while Yearly Fixed Tilt uses a constant angle set to the location's latitude.
Tilt angles show the optimal panel orientation for each month. Monthly Optimal Tilt changes throughout the year to track the sun's position, while Yearly Fixed Tilt remains constant at the location's latitude.
