Sun angle

Featured Replies

I'm trying to determine possible locations for my solar panels given the various shaded areas behind trees and roof shape. In any case, what is the lowest angle the sun will shine from in Pretoria? I know from the JRC calculator the panels should be at about 30°, but I can't figure out what clearance they need in front of them.

Brilliant. Thank you!

Just to be sure. Are these the same angles shadows will form at?
