Adjustable Solar Panel Mounts
The angle of inclination of any adjustable solar panel mount may actually be altered two or more times within a year in order to make up for the winter sun’s lower angle whilst the earth orbits the sun leading to change in season. An effective principle is latitude + 15 degrees during winter and latitude - 15 degrees during summer. This tends to boost the total solar panel output by around 25 percent. A hassle-free technique which actually works is to set the angle of inclination for the winter position during around mid-October and have it set back to summer position in mid-March.
