Compact 6.6kW Solar System: Maximum Power from Limited Roof Space

Published 7 May 2023 · EFS Solar

For homes with limited roof space, a compact 6.6kW solar system using high-efficiency panels delivers the generating capacity you need without requiring every square metre of your roof.

High Efficiency = Compact Footprint

At 410W per panel (high efficiency), just 16 panels achieve 6.56kW — requiring approximately 26m² of roof space, versus 30+m² for lower-efficiency panels. This matters for homes with limited unshaded roof area.

Optimising a Compact System

For roofs with complex shading, panel-level optimisation technology (micro-inverters or DC optimisers) can significantly improve whole-system performance by ensuring one shaded panel doesn't limit the output of unshaded panels.

No Roof is Too Small for Solar

EFS Solar's design team uses satellite imagery and on-site assessment to determine the optimal panel placement for maximum generation from your specific roof. Contact EFS Solar for a compact system design tailored to you.
