What is the best roof direction for solar panels?
The answer is south-facing.
South-facing roofs are ideal for solar panels, as they get the most sunlight and the highest sun intensity throughout the day in the UK. East or west-facing roofs are also good, as they get enough sunlight in the morning or afternoon, with only a small loss of energy generation. North-facing roofs are not recommended, as they get very little sunlight. Flat roofs can use mounts to tilt the solar panels at the best angle. You can contact us for a remote survey of your roof suitability using the contact details below.

Matt Alexander’s Solar Energy Success Story
A 5-Star Review of NXTGEN Energy’s Products & Services
The work’s been done to an incredibly high standard. The cabling is really neat, the system is performing fantastically well, and we can’t believe how much money we’ve saved already. So, generally a big thank you to Stuart, Kelly and everyone at the NXTGEN team, who have done a really, really good job from start to finish.
We really couldn’t be more pleased.
