This video covers some basic concepts around choosing a location for solar panels. More importantly, it goes into my experience in choosing a backyard location for the simple solar panel system.

Some ideas covered in the backyard solar panel location video include avoiding shade and shadows, minimizing wire runs, minimizing distance from the home, designing a backyard solar panel mount for easy installation, and maximining space when installing solar panels.

The video also discusses the pvwatts website which can be found at:
