The tilt angle of the panels is one of the most important parameters for your PV system. It is the angle at which the photovoltaic panels are set to face the sun relative to a horizontal position. The panels must have appropriate tilt angle set for gaining maximum possible electricity from your PV system for your location. Optimal Tilt is using optimization model for obtaining the most ideal tilt angle of your panels in order to gain maximum electricity generation from your system.


The model is based on sophisticated methods for maximizing energy yield with finding the best performance for any desired location.


The additional tools and apps can help you optimize your PV System and check the performance including financial implications.

This app is awesome! I haven't used its tilt angle recommendations yet, but they seem legit. The angle finder is GOLDEN! most "bubble level" apps will not give you elevation above horizontal like this one: Past 45 degrees, they seem to give you angle from vertical. Highly recommended.

Instead of pushing for premium. They should make app work a bit better. What is the point of asking for GPS access if you going to leave my location in Africa? When gain access it should have auto adjust sand save. You need to go open menu. Then map.. Then force the red pin to adjust. It is a tap not a hold. Then the map won't let you do basic things like point north. They are already pushing ads. Should at least give us basic functionality

The tilt angle is great. I use it every time I deploy my ground mount panels when camping. However, I'm baffled by what the red line in the compass is trying to tell me. Is there an instruction manual available that would help? Updated rating due to developer response.
