Just so we’re all on the same page, let’s start by understanding what a solar panel is. In short, a solar panel captures sunlight and converts it into electricity using photovoltaic cells. Depending on how the panels are wired up, this energy is either stored in a battery or converted from DC to. .
You can install solar panels on a balcony, although you might need HOA permission depending on how big they are, where they’ll be located, etc. Other than that, there are a few considerations: .
You can probably pick up on the benefits and drawbacks of balcony solar panels already, but let’s recap: .
So, are balcony solar panels worth it? The answer ultimately depends on your intentions. For a full-size array that powers your home, probably not. The payback potential isn’t worth it. [pdf]

International Energy Agency Implementing Agreement on Photovoltaic Power Systems .
Grid interconnection of photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems has the advantage of effective utilization of generated power because there are no storage losses. .
The objectives of this document are to provide an international guideline for the evaluation of, and certification methods for, photovoltaic. .
This generic international guideline for the certification of photovoltaic system components and complete grid-connected photovoltaic systems. .
Each country must determine its needs and choose the criteria required for safe and reliable connection to the utility grid(s). All incentive programs will eventually use the energy provided by the photovoltaic system as the criteria for rebates or buy. [pdf]
