ViewSolar in Mitcham: questions
Will tree cover make solar uneconomic in Blackwood / Belair?
Not usually - microinverters or DC optimisers let each panel produce independently, so a shaded panel doesn't drag the whole string down. Tree trimming or strategic panel placement on the unshaded portion of the roof handles the rest.
