How should we correctly install solar panels?
The angle of the solar panel for solar streetlights is calculated based on the geographical latitude and season of the installation location. Generally, the panels should be installed facing true south, with the installation angle usually matching or fluctuating a few degrees around the local latitude.
The ideal tilt angle is one that maximizes the annual power generation of the solar panels, typically taken as the local latitude or a few degrees above it. If computer-aided design software can be utilized, optimization of the solar tilt angle can be performed, which is particularly important for high-latitude regions. If conditions allow for computer parameterized design for angle calculation, the solar panel’s tilt angle can be roughly determined based on local latitude: for latitudes of 0° to 25°, the tilt angle equals the latitude; for latitudes of 26° to 40°, the tilt angle equals the latitude plus 5° to 12°; for latitudes of 41° to 55°, the tilt angle equals the latitude plus 10° to 15°; for latitudes above 55°, the tilt angle equals the latitude plus 15° to 22°.
