Problems with Fixed Tilt
Solutions with Rocking Solar
Economics:
Low PV Solar Efficiency
with Max Energy Only at High Noon
Improved Efficiency by up to 40% Reduced Capital Cost by 20%
Weight: Maximizes Panels per Roof
Area and Therefore Weight
Fewer Panels Offset Hardware Weight Reducing Deadload by 17%
Flexibility: Panels Crowding Prevents
Roof Access
and Repairs
Row Spacing Allows for Roof and Panel Access Between Each Row
Wind: High Tilt Panel Wind Exposure Requires Roof Penetrations
Wind Sensors, Interconnected Rows, and Wall Mounts Reduce Penetrations
