minus-squareKorhaka@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·7 days agoIt’s 95% of regular panels, so it’s 5% worse. I would go with regular panels in that case, unless they are shaped like tiles and can provide better coverage of the roof. 5% efficiency drop but 15% coverage increase could be worth it. But I expect install costs would be quite a bit higher
