Performance of a 5kW Solar System
As mentioned previously, the location of your home (in-land or coastal) along with the angle of your roof will determine the performance of your system. A steeper roof angle is more likely to take advantage of the winter sun, and your system could perform better in winter in comparison to summer. A flat roof will have the opposite result, as summer periods would make the outperform winter periods.
