Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Israel
So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 75 locations in Israel, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Israel varies between 28° from the horizontal plane facing South in Hosen and 25° from the horizontal plane facing South in Eilat.
These tilt angles are optimised for maximum annual PV output at each location for fixed-panel solar PV installations. If you click on one of the locations above, there is further detail on ideal seasonal tilt angles as well (in case your solar panels are adjustable).
Depending on where you are based in Israel, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 3 degrees (between 28° from the horizontal plane facing South and 25° from the horizontal plane facing South).
Israel solar PV Stats as a country
Israel ranks 29th in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 2,555 total MW's of solar PV installed. This means that 4.70% of Israel's total energy as a country comes from solar PV (that's 17th in the world). Each year Israel is generating 277 Watts from solar PV per capita (Israel ranks 16th in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]
Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Israel?
Yes, there are several incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Israel. The Israeli government offers a variety of financial incentives and subsidies for businesses that install solar energy systems. These include grants, tax credits, and low-interest loans. Additionally, the government has implemented a feed-in tariff program which guarantees a fixed price for electricity generated from renewable sources such as solar power. This helps to ensure that businesses can recoup their investment in solar energy over time.
