Are Solar Panels Heavy?

Solar panels vary in weight depending on their size and type. The weight of a solar panel can range from 33 pounds (15 kg) to 50 pounds (23 kg) for a standard residential solar panel. This is not considered heavy and can be easily installed on rooftops.

However, it's important to note that the weight of a solar panel system can add up when multiple panels are installed on a rooftop. This is why it's important to have a structural engineer evaluate the roof's ability to support the weight of a solar panel system before installation.
