From the LA Times blog, "
Your neighbors trees vs. your solar panels (or vice versa)". Interesting. After taking a solar installation class recently, trees are a radiance killer and really do inhibit the
PV panels from generating peak energy. I know that as I look to buy a house for the first time I am aware of the tree growth in the surrounding neighbor's yards and the prospective house's yard. But what about home owners who live in some of the older Denver neighborhoods where tall trees are in abundance? And what about the
initiative by
Greenprint Denver to plant a million trees by 2025? Some things to think about as we try to take advantage of 300 sunny days a year.
