Automatically move the solar panels

Heliomotion is an award-winning, innovative solar tracking system, i.e. solar panels which move to follow the sunlight. The panels aren't fixed to a roof but to a column which stands in the ground outside your home. By following the sun from sunrise to sunset a Heliomotion delivers 30-60% more energy per year than a. . The solar tracker uses GPS to calculate the sun's location. It can determine the time, latitude and longitude to detect the sun's position and turn the. . Unlike roof-based solar which is restricted in terms of energy generation by which way the roof is facing, the Heliomotion tracks the sun to maximise the panels' exposure to sunlight at all. . A potentially big attraction for some homeowners is that it doesn't necessarily need to be installed by a professional. There are two mounting options: ground anchors or a concrete. . By storing surplus energy generated by the Heliomotion you can keep it for use at another time or to charge an electric vehicle getting the owner. [pdf]

FAQS about Automatically move the solar panels

Can I move solar PV panels?

Yes, it is possible to move solar PV panels; however, the costs will likely outweigh the benefits. Unless you have a very large system, you will no longer be eligible for Feed-in Tariff payments. Additionally, the solar PV system's efficiency may be compromised when moved.

How much does it cost to move solar panels?

Read here Moving solar panels is technically possible but not financially advisable. Relocation costs include labour, scaffolding, MCS re-registration, and storage, totalling approximately £5,280. These costs can amount to a huge chunk of the initial installation cost of the solar system.

How do solar panels work?

The main goal is to increase the power output of solar panels by making them more perpendicular to the sun's rays. It is achieved by using a tracking system that can detect the sun's position and adjust the angle of solar panels. A typical tracking system consists of a tilt sensor, a servo system, and a controller.

What happens if you move a solar PV system?

Moving a solar PV system disqualifies you from the feed-in tariff because it gives the system the status of a second hand system, which is no longer eligible for the scheme. This rule applies to most residential solar PV systems. However, there is an exception for large and powerful PV systems, typically used by businesses.

How do I install a solar photovoltaic system?

The most efficient way to install a solar photovoltaic system is by using a Heliomotion. Simply because a Heliomotion has innovative sun-tracking technology which enables solar panels to track the sun throughout the day and year. Heliomotion uses dual-axis tracking, delivering 30-70% more solar yield by following the sun from sunrise to sunset.

Can a solar system be moved between buildings?

From summer 2019, medium and large building-mounted solar PV systems that exceed 50 kWp are allowed to be moved between buildings without the loss of Feed-in Tariff (FIT) payments. This exception applies only to these larger systems.
