Bifacial solar panels — worth the extra cost for a home?

DRAFT — outline only. Do not publish until the figures below are verified. Keep this guide inactive until it is written.

Angle: Honest take on whether bifacial is worth it on a typical residential terrace.

This guide must answer: - What are bifacial panels and how do they gain extra output? - Do rooftop conditions actually let a home benefit from the rear side? - What's the price premium vs the realistic extra generation? - When does it make sense and when is it marketing?

Writing rules: answer the question in the first two sentences, put a real number in the opening paragraph, name the specific city or DISCOM where the answer varies, and link to two related guides and the relevant category page.

Verify before publishing: Current bifacial price premium and realistic rooftop gain figures.
