My city allows up to 10kW of power to be installed.
I have a new 35x15 pergola that would allow support this output with full coverage of panels. But I also have a new roof with heavy presidential shake that would last a long time as an installation option.
The pergola seems the simplest way for DIY. But am I missing any huge pro's for putting it on a roof?
I saw that panels reduce heat in the attic by up to 5 degrees when on a roof. Does this outweigh the increased installation efforts?
