ScanTheSun research installation

Our photovoltaic research installation was created in 2017 as part of the HYTTE experiment ( http://scanthesun.com/hytte/experiment.php?lan=EN ).
After two years, we've collected enough data and soon we'll publish more information about the HYTTE experiment.

Two rows of six PV panels each were placed according to the results of the ScanTheSun app calculations.
The four panels in the middle were installed in a standard way  (in the plane of the roof surface).

The difference in energy yield is 20% in favor of ScanTheSun optimized panels.
 

Here you will see our research installation from a drone camera https://youtu.be/iHMQuGmtM18.
