Dependence of solar array energy on orbital parameters is given for cases that achieve optimum array pointing and maximum performance; optimum pointing requires continual array articulation and/or active spacecraft attitude control; performance obtained in local-vertical attitudes with fixed or incrementally articulated arrays is compared with maximum.
