In contrast to conventional modules, the Autarq system is also insensitive to shading due to a parallel connection. Skylights, chimneys, ventilation pipes or aerials have little influence on the installation and efficient operation of such a system. Apart from the north side, every square metre of a house roof can be used to generate electricity.
