Main Issue
Preliminary Design
- Review relevant laws, support ordinances, and design guidelines.
- Calculate the mandatory ratio (self-sufficiency rate) for the project.
- Establish a renewable energy installation plan based on calculations.
Site Conditions Analysis [Installation Conditions Review]
Guidelines related to the support of renewable energy facilities
1. Module Installation Capacity
Possible to install up to 110% of the design capacity
2. Installation State
1) Must be installed within 45 degrees to the east or west of true south (60 degrees for facilities subject to supply certification).
2) For solar facilities (BAPV or BIPV type) installed parallel to existing building roofs or walls, installation can be within 90 degrees to the east or west of true south.
3) Modules must receive at least 5 hours of sunlight per day, based on spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) standards.
