It begins with daylight.
Photovoltaic panels generate direct current electricity. Roof orientation, shade, the available area and the proposed layout all matter. A panel count alone is not a useful measure of suitability.

Make generation usable.
An inverter converts direct current to alternating current for the property. Its location, associated electrical equipment and cable routes belong in the design conversation from the beginning.
Your routine completes the picture.
Electricity use and generation vary through the day. Discuss how the proposed system relates to demand, grid imports and exports; do not assume every unit generated replaces a unit you buy.
Conceptual illustration. Your system needs a property-specific design.
02 / DAYLIGHT, WITH PURPOSE
More than panels.
A different way to
think about energy.
Generation is one part of the picture
Solar photovoltaic panels generate electricity from daylight. How that electricity relates to a property depends on both the proposed system and the timing of demand. A roof photograph on its own cannot tell that story.
Start by describing the building and what you want to change. A useful discussion connects physical roof information with everyday activity, rather than beginning with an assumed number of panels.
03 / START WITH WHAT IS THERE
The questions behind a layout
Bring any existing roof information, the location of obvious features and an outline of nearby shade. Mention roof work already planned. These details help explain the setting; structural condition and design suitability still need a property-specific assessment.
Ask what the proposal assumes about electricity use, what equipment and works it includes, and what further checks are needed. Leave output, savings and costs for a proposal supported by actual information.
DIFFERENT BUILDINGS. DIFFERENT ROUTINES.

A home that changes through the day
A household may be quiet at midday and busy in the evening. Explain that rhythm alongside the roof itself. A home office, new vehicle or planned extension can change the questions worth exploring.
