On average, you need about 10 square meters of roof space for every 1 kW of solar capacity. A typical 5 kW residential system would require approximately 50 square meters of unshaded roof area.
Solar panels require minimal maintenance. Occasional cleaning to remove dust and debris, typically 2-4 times per year, is usually sufficient. The inverter may need replacement after 10-15 years, while the panels themselves typically last 25+ years.
