Best Angle for Solar panel Installation in India

The optimal angle for solar panel installation in India depends on several factors, including latitude, climate, and seasonal variations. In general, the ideal angle is close to the latitude of the location where the panels are installed. Here's a state-wise recommended angle for solar panel installation across India:
 State Latitude (approx.) Recommended Angle (Degrees)
Jammu & Kashmir 34.0° N  30-35°
Himachal Pradesh 31.0° N 25-30°
Punjab   30.9° N 25-30
 Haryana 29.0° N 25-30°
Uttarakhand 30.0° N 25-30°
Delhi  28.6° N 25-30°
Rajasthan  27.0° N 20-25° 
Uttar Pradesh 27.0° N 25-30°
Madhya Pradesh 23.0° N 20-25°
Gujarat 22.0° N 20-25°
Maharashtra 20.0° N 15-20°
Chhattisgarh 21.0° N 20-25°
Odisha 20.0° N 15-20°
West Bengal 23.0° N 20-25°
Telangana 17.5° N 10-15°
Andhra Pradesh 15.5° N 10-15°
Tamil Nadu 11.0° N 10-15°
Kerala 8.5° N 10-15°
Bihar 25.0° N 20-25°
Jharkhand 23.0° N 20-25°



General Guidelines for determining Angles for solar panel installation
- Fixed Systems: The recommended angles are typically fixed throughout the year to optimize energy production.
- Adjustable Systems: If using adjustable mounts, angles can be modified seasonally: higher angles in winter and lower in summer.

Conclusion
Installing solar panels at the correct angle maximizes sunlight exposure, leading to higher energy generation. It's essential to consider both local weather patterns and potential shading from surrounding structures or vegetation when determining the best angle for installation.

Enlead Energy won't take any resposibility in reduction of energy production just because you followed the required angle suggestion. This blog is intended to make awareness about the relation between latitude and solar panal angle to produce solar power using panels. Energy production can be varied becuause of several other factors.
