We have four window elements of about 3 x 3 m on the southwest side.
The 2.5 m roof overhang increases by about 6°, so that in winter, when the sun is low, it shines about 10 degrees in front of the kitchen.
In summer, the sunlight falls on the floor in the window area from about 4:00 p.m. onward.
In winter we use sunlight and in summer we use shade.
In my opinion, the low extra consumption is more than compensated for by the flood of light in the room.
