Nowadays, many countries are vigorously developing new energy industries. For the sustainable development of social economy, the development and utilization of new energy is particularly important. Is it good to install photovoltaic power generation at home?

Currently, there are two construction methods widely used for rooftop solar panel installation. One is pitched roof solar mount bracket using aluminum rails to fix the pv panels, and the other is flat roof photovoltaic mount bracket supporting the panels. Both are based on the roof's sun angle and sun lighting effect, in order to ensure the maximized power generation efficiency.

The main advantages of building a photovoltaic power station on the rooftop are as follows:

1.Solar panels can "regulate" indoor temperature. It also can provide cooling and heat function respectively in summer and winter.

2.Photovoltaic power generation can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, thereby effectively reducing air pollution, reducing the use of fossil energy, saving energy and cost.  

3.The investment is small, electricity bills are saved, and no additional land is required. Solar panels are installed on the top of the building and the existing building is combined with the photovoltaic system.

4.The remaining power can be sold to generate additional revenue.

There are several issues to pay attention to when installing photovoltaic panels on building roofs:

1.Choose the appropriate photovoltaic bracket installation method according to the type of roof. For example, roof hooks are used for tile roofs, waterproof aluminum plates with L feets cone holes are used for asphalt shingle roofs. For flat roof solar mount, expansion screws and cement pier bases can be used for fixing pc panel, etc.

2.When installed on the roof, it is susceptible to lightning interference, so a lightning protection device must be installed.

3.Consider wind and snow load resistance is must, as well as whether the roof can bear loads.
