How does the solar panel PV system works in the Canadian winter during the snows. Will snow melt off by itself

May 20, 2009

solar panel installation


How does the solar panel PV system works in the Canadian winter during the snows. Will snow melt off by itself from the solar panels or certain angles I have to look into during installation. Do I have to bush off snow if I install it on the roof in the winter time.

    Heavy snows will not melt off by itself in midwinter. The truth is solar panels don’t do much during the winter due to cloudiness all the time. they are most useful spring and fall.
