Lucky you, we lookes at PV when we built our house. But back then, well, we just didn't have the necessary 15k left for an installation. As soon as we get an EV, for now the required size for four people is just to expensive, there will be PV installed alongside a wall box. Our roof is large enough, albeit propably tricky (almost flat, but not completely, covered by bitumen). But we'll see!

Flat roof is very doable, I have 34 out of 50 panels here on less than 10 degree slope on a flat roof. What's nice about it is that even though it isn't optimal when the sun is out it works very well when the sky is overcast, sometimes even better than the panels that are oriented towards the sun.

Good news! And since our house is pretty much running north-south, with an unobstructed view of the sun until around, say, mid-afternoon, the aide of our roof facing east should be quite suitable (to get more sun on it, we'd have to remove all the trees, moat of which are 30+ years old, something we don't want to do). One day, there will panels on that roof!

Neat, if you need any mounting tips let me know, I've had a few 'trial-and-error' runs at it.

as things are, that'll take a while (as in years!), but I'll come back to it!
