Think solar only works when the sun is beaming? Think again!

One of the most common reasons people hesitate to go solar is the fear that rainy or cloudy days will leave them in the dark.

Let’s clear up the confusion once and for all.

The Myth: "If it’s cloudy or rainy, my solar system won’t generate electricity."

The Fact: Solar panels run on light, not heat or direct sunlight!

Here is how your system keeps working, even when the sky turns gray;

Diffused Light is Still Light: Just like you can still get sunburned on a cloudy day at the beach, solar panels absorb UV and visible light rays that pass directly through cloud cover. While output may dip slightly, your system continues to produce power.

Panels Love Cool Weather: Extreme heat can actually reduce panel efficiency. Modern solar equipment often performs at peak electronic efficiency on cool, overcast days.

The Battery Advantage: A professionally designed system uses battery storage to hold extra energy generated during peak sunshine, so you have seamless power when heavy storms roll in.

Don't let unpredictable weather hold you back from clean, reliable energy.

Until LocalVolts partner access came through in late August, our battery AI was guessing.

It ran on estimated wholesale prices — a decent model of what the market was probably doing, but still a model. Now, with a customer's explicit authorisation in their own LocalVolts account, we can read their actual live prices and meter data through the partner API and run their battery against the real thing. Read-only on the price feed: we place no trades, and they keep their own account and their own retailer relationship.

It's been running on our own house for months — charging when power is cheap or negative, holding it back for the expensive end of the evening. The first customer home is now on their own real prices too. One house at a time, carefully, because a battery controller that gets it wrong is worse than none at all.

The honest catch: it only makes sense on a spot plan, where the price actually moves. On a flat Aurora tariff there is nothing to trade against — a battery there is self-consumption and blackout backup, full stop.

Would you hand your house over to a price that changes every five minutes, or is a flat tariff worth the certainty to you?
