Yes, it is possible to install solar panels on a pergola to harness solar energy and generate electricity. Solar panels can be mounted on the top or sides of the pergola to maximize exposure to sunlight. However, before proceeding with the installation, consult with a solar panel expert or a professional installer to assess the structural integrity of the pergola and its ability to support the added weight of the panels. Additionally, consider the angle and orientation of the panels to optimize energy generation. By going solar, you can reduce your energy costs and contribute to a more sustainable environment.
