Sun Tracking Solar Array


This customer already had their solar panels when they called us about installing them on their house. They brought them with them when they moved from Hawaii to the states. Now, that was a very smart decision. They new the value of their investment.

The problem that Keith discovered when assessing their home was that they didn't have any South facing roof space to mount them. Keith suggested mounting them on a sun tracking device. It works like a sunflower, following the sun with its face at a 90degree angle to the sun to optimize photon absorbtion. Sun tracking increases energy production up to 50%! It follows the sun all day and then resets to the East ready for the morning rays.

Here is a quick video that demonstrates sun tracking.http://www.mypowerfulhome.com/sun-tracker-system
