Azerbaijan's Active Consumer Support Mechanism

Good news! Azerbaijan implemented a net-metering system allowing you to sell excess solar energy to Azərenerji and use it later when needed.

Key Benefits:

System size: Install solar panels up to ~150 kW for residential/commercial use
Surplus energy: Any electricity you generate but don't use is fed into the national grid
Night usage: The surplus offsets your consumption later—essentially "banking" energy for nighttime use
Financial savings: Reduce or eliminate your electricity bills through net-metering

Legal framework: Approved by Cabinet of Ministers Decree No. 346 (September 28, 2023).

📋 Important Notes

This is an estimate. Actual system performance depends on:

Roof orientation and tilt angle
Shading from trees or buildings
Panel quality and inverter efficiency
Local climate variations

Next steps: Consult with a certified solar installer for detailed site assessment and accurate system design.

🌍 Environmental Impact

🚗

CO₂ Reduction (tons/year)

🌳

Equivalent Trees Planted

🎯 System Optimization Recommendations

📐 Optimal Tilt Angle

35°

This angle maximizes annual solar energy capture for your latitude

🧭 Panel Orientation

South (180°)

Face panels directly south for maximum exposure in Northern Hemisphere

📉 System Loss i

14%

DC energy lost before becoming usable AC electricity (cables, inverter, etc.)

🌳 Shading Analysis

Critical!

Ensure no shading from trees or buildings, especially 9am-3pm
