Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Lithuania

So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 16 locations in Lithuania, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Lithuania varies between 47° from the horizontal plane facing South in Mažeikiai and 45° from the horizontal plane facing South in Alytus.

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 Lithuania, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 2 degrees (between 47° from the horizontal plane facing South and 45° from the horizontal plane facing South).

Lithuania solar PV Stats as a country

Lithuania ranks 61st in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 338 total MW's of solar PV installed. Each year Lithuania is generating 121 Watts from solar PV per capita (Lithuania ranks 36th in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]

Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Lithuania?

Yes, there are incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Lithuania. The Lithuanian government offers a range of financial incentives and tax breaks for businesses that invest in renewable energy sources such as solar power. These include grants, loans, and tax credits. Additionally, the government has set up a feed-in tariff system which guarantees a fixed price for electricity generated from renewable sources such as solar power. This helps to make investing in solar energy more attractive to businesses.
