Top 7 Design Misconceptions in Solar

In order to stay competitive, solar designers must ensure that every design decision is optimal for minimizing cost and maximizing performance. The biggest opportunities for improvement are design rules-of-thumb: often determined a decade ago during high module costs, these design techniques are easy to apply, yet often cost developers money.

In this webinar, Paul Grana from Folsom Labs will explain the most common design misconceptions, including shade tolerance rules, racking design techniques, row spacing rules, and conductor sizing limits. He will explain the background for the current state-of-the-art rules, and specific tools & techniques that designers can apply to improve their system designs.
