> why not use solar panels on your fence if it is cheaper than any other options.
replyI was considering this earlier in the year, as it happens.
The biggest issue I can see is that you would want a micro inverter or solar optimizer on every panel or every other panel to get decent output which would add a lot to the cost.
replyDon't take my word for it because I still feel like I don't fully understand the situation, but are you aware of the current state of bypass diodes and shadow scanning in mppts? The situation seems to have changed a lot in recent years.
replyJust checked my local online store - non-structural plywood is still about 5-10x cheaper.
