Remove ads

A balcony solar power system is a small photovoltaic system for generating electrical power.[1][2][3] It consists of one or more solar modules, an inverter, a low-voltage connection cable and a plug for connecting to the final circuit in the network of an end consumer.[4] The balcony, carport, garage roof or terrace are often used as installation locations. The electricity generated can be used immediately; unused electricity flows from the consumer's connection into the public grid without compensation.[5] As of October 2024, in Germany, more than 700.000 balcony power solar systems were installed.[6][7] The U.S., which has a potential market of 57 GW for balcony solar power plants, lacks regulation for such systems.[8]
