The number of solar panels required for your system depends on your household’s energy usage and the capacity and quality of each individual panel. Generally, a 5kW solar system may need approximately 10 to 12 panels. However, determining the optimal number and configuration of panels is important in ensuring you get the most benefit from your new system.
At TCK Solar, part of ensuring that the design is tailored to your specific needs includes providing a comprehensive site visit. During this visit, our team assesses your property and evaluates critical factors such as roof orientation, shading from trees or nearby structures, where we’ll run cables, and the availability of roof space. We will also review your current energy consumption patterns by analysing your electricity bills, which is one of the most important parts of helping our design engineers to tailor a system that best meets your specific energy needs.
Based on this information, our design engineers will customise your solar panel quote to ensure it meets your current, and proposed future, energy demands. By tailoring the design to your usage and preferences, we are optimising your solar system’s performance and efficiency, helping you maximise savings and thus minimising your reliance on power from the electricity grid. Our goal is to ensure that you receive a solar and / or all-electric solution, that is perfectly aligned with your lifestyle and energy needs.
