Are you interested in but think there is no point having them installed in winter? ❄️
Solar panels work by capturing sunlight, not heat. They generate energy all year round even on cold days as long as there’s daylight. Solar panels actually work more efficiently in cooler temperatures because the cells that make up a solar panels will lose efficiency when they get hot. Cool days with lots of sunlight are ideal conditions for solar panels.
Fewer hours of sunlight?
Yes, along with more overcast days there are less hours of sunlight in winter. So the total energy generation will be much less than other parts of the year, but you will still get some days of good generation and across a month they will still reduce your electric bills.
With solar batteries, homeowners can also buy electricity at cheaper rates. This means that on days with little light, they can still benefit from significant savings on their electric bill by using the battery to buy electricity at a reduced cost.
