Disadvantages of inclined installation for balcony power plants

Whether balcony power plant, plug-in solar system or mini solar system – the installation plays a decisive role for efficiency and safety. An angled installation has a number of disadvantages:

Less aesthetically pleasing
Solar modules mounted at an angle disrupt the appearance of the façade

Higher wind load
Solar modules mounted at an angle offer a larger surface area for wind to attack and are more susceptible to strong gusts

More complex installation
Angle-mounted modules require more stable brackets and more precise alignment, which makes installation more complicated

Shadows cast on the balcony
Depending on the time of day, angled modules can cast shadows on the balcony below

Greater susceptibility to soiling
Dirt and snow adhere more easily to modules installed at an angle and can impair performance

Limited safety
Protruding modules can pose a risk if parts come loose
