The guy at clean power estimator says south is best total power trumps 
peak power.
I have a tool you can use to model different scenarios 
http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/go/deant/EnergyCalc.xlt
It doesn't limit at the horizon yet, but you can change slope and 
azimuth and it will report values thorugh a time of use model. You can 
change paramaters and check the values quickly and easily with the tool.

good luck deant

>Which exposure, south or west, would be the optimum for a TOU customer in California?  South would capture more energy in total, especially while the sun is high in the sky, but west might capture more energy on peak time (12N-6PM).  Anyone made a study of this?  Assume for this case there are no shade issues, and the orientation must be S or W, nothing in between (seems to me SW might actually be optimum).
