Technical FAQs 4

Do you need a roof check before installing solar panels?

A detailed roof check is needed before installing solar panels. Look at the roof’s structure, age, and condition. Fix any issues to ensure it can hold the solar system. Discover essential roof requirements for solar panels. Learn about pitch, load capacity, and materials to ensure your home is ready for a solar energy system.

Is there a guide to rooftop solar & Bess?

To help homeowners tackle this tangle of information, PNNL researchers Jessica Kerby and Bethel Tarekegne published an open-access guide to rooftop solar and BESS in Renewable Energy Focus.

How do I know if my roof is suitable for solar?

We’ll examine roof orientation, pitch, load capacity, material, and ventilation. Understand the importance of roof suitability for optimal solar panel performance and longevity. Evaluate your roof’s orientation, pitch, and condition to ensure maximum solar exposure.

How much would a rooftop solar system cost without Bess?

Without BESS, the same household could install 10 kW of rooftop solar, which would cost $28,700 and save $1,567 per year. PGE and the state of Oregon both offer incentives for rooftop solar and battery energy storage. With the utility, state, and federal incentives, the combined solar and BESS system could be paid back within 11 years.
