Rent out the rooftop for solar power generation

Will my roof generate solar energy?

Realistically, your roof’s solar generation potential will be less than that. It’ll likely still exceed your typical household energy needs, but real-world constraints like roof space, sunlight exposure, and equipment specifications play a huge role in your panels’ actual generation.

Should you invest in a solar roof?

In this case, an investment of this magnitude is not advisable. Nevertheless, there is an easy way for these companies to exploit the solar potential of their roof area – by leasing their roof to ENVIRIA. It's uncomplicated and worthwhile: you rent out your roof to us and we install a PV system that we operate and maintain ourselves.

How much solar power does a roof use a year?

Truthfully, way more than you probably need. According to our calculations, the average roof can produce about 35,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of solar electricity annually—more than three times the amount of electricity the average U.S. home uses annually.

Should solar panels be installed on a south-facing roof?

Ideally, your solar panels will be installed on a south-facing roof at an angle of about 30°. These are the optimal conditions for solar panel production. The closer you get to this, the more electricity your panels produce. Solar panels with a larger power-to-size ratio will produce more electricity per square foot.

How many solar panels can fit on a roof?

On average, solar panels measure about 17.5 square feet. To calculate how many panels can fit on your roof, divide your open roof space by 17.5 square feet (or however large your particular solar panels are). For example, if you have 500 square feet of open, available roof space, that's enough space for about 28 solar panels.
