I have a palm tree that is right next to my house that is causing a shading issue. It looks like as the sun is getting lower in the sky as it gets closer to winter it’s affecting more and more panels. Here’s what it looks like right now:
If you look at my per panel production numbers for the last month you can see it’s definitely having an impact on my production (The tree is in the bottom corner)
On a somewhat related note, I have been told that it’s not in an ideal location as far as being so close to the house. I guess their is a concern that the roots could affect the house’s foundation as it grows.
I would hate to remove the tree, but I also hate seeing the impact to my production.
What do you think? Keep the tree and deal with the loss of production or remove it?
