Presumably at the cost of shading your neighbors and high wind loading/expensive mounts.

There is no free lunch, and traditional solar installations don't usually have a lot of light missing the panels.

Traditional single axis tracking installations don't miss much light. These provide similar characteristics in space constrained areas, which are also closer to electricity consumers, potentially reducing transmission costs.

Fixed panels - common in denser areas, do miss a lot of light.
