5. Orientation of the system
The correct alignment of the system in relation to the solar radiation has a positive effect on energy production, so that less external power has to be purchased and thus electricity costs can be reduced. As a result, optimal alignment leads to a faster amortization
6. With/without memory
The decision to use an energy storage system can affect the payback period. A solar roof system with storage is more expensive to purchase, but the excess electricity can be temporarily stored and is not lost. This excess electricity can be used at times of low solar radiation, meaning that less electricity needs to be purchased from outside.
7. Individual consumption profile
Your individual consumption behavior has a direct impact on the amortization. Larger households generally use more electricity. A precise analysis of your consumption profile helps to dimension the system accordingly.
8. Electricity price development
The future development of electricity prices is an important factor. Higher electricity prices can accelerate the amortization and improve the economic efficiency of the PV system.
9. Feed-in tariff
In some regions, you will receive a feed-in tariff for the electricity fed into the grid. This can shorten the payback period and increase the return on investment, allowing you to be profitable on your investment in a shorter time.
10. Quality of components
The quality of the components used influences the longevity and performance of the system. Robust and durable solar systems can therefore generate power for longer and are more profitable. At SolX, we rely on high-quality components for long-term and reliable use so that you can operate in the long term.
Reasons for a SolX PV system
Save money and reduce costs at the same time
A kilowatt hour (kWh) of electricity currently costs around 42 cents in Germany (including electricity price cap). With solar systems from SolX, you can generate your own electricity and become independent of grid providers. If you install a PV system, you save with every kilowatt hour you use, reduce your annual electricity costs and can feed the excess electricity generated into a power storage unit. With a power storage unit, you can use your own solar power at any time, even when the sun isn't shining.
protect the environment
Many plant operators opt for solar systems to actively protect the environment. Photovoltaic systems use the sun's energy and convert it directly into usable electricity. Unlike conventional power plants such as coal-fired power plants, they do not emit any climate-damaging CO2 and are therefore 100% climate-neutral. By opting for a PV system, you become an active climate protector and help limit global warming by reducing your personal CO2 emissions.
Together with the family, independent of the network provider
In Germany, the energy industry is mainly dominated by large energy companies. Although the liberalization of the electricity market allows us to choose our own electricity supplier, we still remain dependent. This is because municipal utilities and electricity providers also get their electricity from coal-fired power plants supplied by companies such as RWE. This means that we are still exposed to unpredictable fluctuations in electricity prices on the electricity exchange.
In contrast, solar power can be generated at any time, at a much lower cost, and is not subject to price fluctuations on the electricity exchange. By installing your own solar system on your roof, you can ensure that your electricity comes 100% from renewable energy sources. Become your own energy supplier and make your own decisions about the future of your energy supply.
Feed in electricity and earn money
Excess electricity generated by the PV system not only benefits your own household, but can also be fed into the public grid via the grid feed-in. This means that every owner of such a system contributes to the generation of more green electricity with their PV power and earns money at the same time. A fee is paid for every kilowatt hour fed into the grid.

What are PV systems
Solar systems consist of technically sophisticated solar cells that aim to capture solar energy in the form of sunlight and convert it into usable electrical energy. These systems are installed on the roofs of buildings, among other places, in order to make optimal use of natural sunlight, use free space efficiently and generate environmentally friendly electricity.
PV systems make a significant contribution to becoming less dependent on conventional energy sources and at the same time support the generation of clean energy from natural and unlimited resources such as sunlight. Installing solar systems on building roofs is an environmentally friendly measure that helps reduce CO2 emissions and thus contributes to a more sustainable energy future for you and the whole family.
How PV systems work
A solar system relies on the intelligent integration of various components to convert sunlight into efficient electrical energy. The key players in a PV system are the state-of-the-art photovoltaic cells. Made from conductive semiconductor materials, these cells generate a direct electrical current (DC) when they come into contact with sunlight.
When put together, the photovoltaic cells form solar modules to ensure the largest possible area of coverage. Strategically placed on the roof or other suitable open space, these solar modules capture the maximum amount of solar radiation.
In order to make the generated direct current usable for household use, it passes through an inverter, which converts it into the common alternating current (AC).
The electricity produced can now be used in two ways:
- When used on its own, it directly covers the energy needs of the house, although additional electricity can be drawn from the grid if required. Alternatively, surplus electricity can be fed into the public grid, whereby in some regions system operators receive compensation for the electricity fed into the grid.
- For additional flexibility, some solar systems can be equipped with energy storage units. These units allow excess electricity to be stored and used when needed, for example at night or on cloudy days.
Advances in control and regulation technology play a central role. Modern PV systems use advanced technologies to optimize module orientation, monitor performance and adapt to changing weather conditions.
Alignment of solar systems
The optimal orientation of PV systems plays a central role in maximizing the efficiency and performance of your system. During planning, we carefully consider the geographical location, orientation and slope of your roof to ensure that your solar system captures the maximum amount of solar energy and converts it into usable electricity for you.
Ideally, the main orientation of your PV system should be south or east-west, as this allows the best sunlight in most regions. A southerly orientation ensures that your solar systems can capture as much sunlight as possible during the day. However, the exact orientation can vary depending on the location, which we take into account in our planning and adapt to your local conditions.
The inclination of the solar array is also important. A tilt angle between 30 and 45 degrees is often recommended to achieve optimal solar yield. This inclination allows the solar panels to efficiently capture sunlight throughout the day, especially during the sunnier months in summer.
Our experts carry out a careful analysis to determine the best orientation and tilt for your PV system, taking into account local climatic conditions, the specific location of your building and individual requirements. With precise orientation, we ensure that your solar system delivers optimal performance all year round.
By taking these factors into account, we not only ensure a sustainable and efficient use of renewable energy, but also help to make the most of your long-term investment in solar technology.
Suitable roofs for solar systems

Optimal roof size for PV systems
The optimal size of a roof for a solar system is a question that can be answered easily - because there is no ideal size. With PV systems, it is important to understand that the size of the system depends not only on the roof area, but also on other factors such as the orientation, the angle of inclination, the location and the energy requirements of the household.
Our experts at SolX are on hand to help you evaluate your roof individually and plan the optimal solar system for your needs. The size of a PV system can vary depending on energy consumption and the available roof space. Solar systems for a household's own consumption usually require a certain number of square meters, while commercial systems can take up larger areas.
We take the time to carry out comprehensive calculations that take your individual energy needs into account. Factors such as the amount of sunlight at your location also play a crucial role. An optimally oriented roof facing south with a pitch angle of between 30 and 45 degrees improves the efficiency of the system and maximizes power generation.
Cleaning of solar systems
Maintaining a PV system is essential to ensure that your PV system functions reliably and efficiently in the long term. Dust, pollen or other dirt can contaminate solar modules and impair their performance. It is therefore advisable to clean the solar modules of any impurities or dirt when necessary.
