The optimal solar panel tilt angle equals your latitude. At 40° (New York), set panels to 40° tilt facing true south. Summer: latitude − 15°. Winter: latitude + 15°. Interactive calculator, direction loss chart, and a

For seasonal adjustments, you generally add 10-15 degrees to your latitude for winter and subtract 10-15 degrees for summer. Online calculators can provide precise monthly angles.

South-facing panels produce 100% of their potential, while southeast or southwest orientations achieve 95-98%. East or west-facing panels generate 75-85% of optimal output, and

Azimuth is measured in degrees clockwise from north. Elevation is measured in degrees up from the horizon. Az & El both report dark after astronomical twilight.

For example, Arizona has latitude of 33 degrees. Therefore the tilt angle of your panel should be 33 degrees in order for it to harness maximum energy. But many homeowners choose to
