Best Solar Panels: Which One Should You Choose? – EnergySage Blog

Your region and climate

It’s no secret that solar panels are more prevalent in the Sun Belt than in other parts of the country, but they’re still an excellent investment if you live in the Northeast or Midwest. You just need to choose the right panels. Your region and climate influence irradiance, shading, panel orientation, temperature, precipitation, wind, dust, and dirt. All of these factors impact the performance of your solar panels.

If you live in an area that frequently experiences rain, snow, or other cloudy conditions, opt for high-output and high-efficiency panels. If you live in a hot and sunny region, you’re in a prime spot for premium solar panel efficiency. You should consider the temperature coefficient as a leading factor in your decision-making.
