Hi, I am repositioning solar panels after roof repair and trying to make the system more efficient. Usually, panels are installed in either landscape or portrait orientation but I've never seen anything in between. Is there any reason why I can't install panels at about 45 degrees to the azimuth so I can fit 6 panels on the spot instead of only 4 in portrait/landscape orientation? Rails will be going across the panels. This is the South facing the top corner of the roof which is much better than the lower spots. The picture is attached.
Thank you!

Panels dont really care about their degree of rotation to the best of my knowledge and experience. It's mostly about angle to the sun.
