STEP 1

Have Your Home or Business Evaluated for its Solar Energy Potential and a System Designed to Best Meet Your Needs

There are several factors that are specific to your installation site that will determine the amount of energy you can produce. The most important factors are your roof size and its orientation along with any buildings, trees or other objects that may block the sun's rays at different times of the year. Solar-Ray provides a thorough evaluation of your home or business and will consult with you to design the system that will achieve the highest possible energy production in line with your budget and aesthetic standards.

A Solar-Ray PV Site Evaluation will provide you with the following:

• A full year’s analysis of your solar exposure from five points of the projected array location using digital imaging from a Solar Pathfinder.

• Identification of significant shading objects with time of day and month they will occur.

• Basic design and price estimate for a recommended system including module size, array configuration, wiring plan, inverter selection, and balance-of-system component location.

• Spreadsheet of estimated daily AC production using regional solar radiation data from the U.S. Department of Energy and calculations of inherent system power losses.

• Product specifications and warranty information on selected modules and inverter.

• Current information on your utility’s net-metering and interconnection policy.

• Information on applicable building codes, safety regulations, Florida construction contracting law, and recommended best practices for system installation.
