A rooftop photovoltaic power station has its electricity-generating solar panels mounted on the rooftop of a residential or commercial building or structure.

The urban environment provides a large amount of empty rooftop spaces and can inherently avoid the potential land use and environmental concerns. By opting for this solution, you can make use of that empty space and produce your own energy! Additionally, installers have the right to feed solar electricity into the public grid and hence receive a reasonable premium tariff per generated kWh reflecting the benefits of solar electricity to compensate for the current extra costs of PV electricity.
