If you are considering solar panel installation in Wigan to select the best panels for you and your home you need to carefully evaluate several factors including your roof’s condition, your energy needs, and your installation type.

Roof Type

Your roof plays a pivotal role in determining which solar panels will work best. Before choosing which panels are right for your Solar PV in Wigan it is important to consider the following:

  • Roof Shading
  • Roof Size
  • Roof Type
  • Roof Orientation

Our guide to choosing the best solar panels for your home will discuss the above in detail alternatively our Solar PV Wigan team will be happy to help you on 01925 873155.

Solar panels generate direct current (DC) electricity when exposed to sunlight. However, your home appliances run on alternating current (AC) electricity. A solar panel inverter converts the DC electricity into AC, making it usable for your home.

A solar panel inverter may seem like a small part of your solar system, but they have a huge impact on its performance. When comparing solar panel inverters, take into account the following:

  • Your Roof’s Shape and Sunlight Exposure: Shaded or multiple roof angles? Go for micro inverters or optimisers.
  • Budget: If cost is a concern, string inverters are the most economical.
  • Future Plans: Want battery storage? Hybrid inverters are the way to go.
  • Current Set Up: Already have solar panels? AC coupled or battery inverters are your go to for retro-fitting batteries
  • Your Energy Goals: Determine what’s most important—cost savings, scalability, or energy independence.

Will my Solar PV Wigan need Optimisers?

Choosing the right inverter for your solar panel installation in Wigan can feel overwhelming. Check out our detailed guide Solar Panel Inverters: Choosing the Right One for Your Home which discusses the main types of solar inverters, their pros and cons, and the scenarios where each type is most beneficial.

Solar panel optimisers are an additional technology that works with inverters to increase the efficiency of your system. They are installed on each panel, ensuring maximum energy extraction, even if part of the array is shaded or dirty. Optimisers are often used in systems that rely on string inverters.

How They Work:

Optimisers adjust the DC voltage from each panel, ensuring the string inverter receives optimal input power. They enhance performance and provide monitoring capabilities for each panel. Optimisers boost energy production in partially shaded systems and allows panel-level monitoring.
