How Do Solar Panels Work?

Solar panels are made up of photovoltaic, or PV, cells.
These cells convert light from the sun into electricity.

When daylight reaches the photovoltaic cells in your solar panels, it creates an electrical charge and produces Direct Current, or DC, electricity.

This electricity is then passed through an inverter, which converts it into Alternating Current, or AC, electricity — the type of electricity used throughout your home.

Do Solar Panels Work In Northern Weather?

Living in the North & Midlands doesn’t mean solar panels won’t work effectively

Solar panels generate electricity from light rather than heat.

While they naturally produce more electricity during bright, sunny conditions and during the longer daylight hours of summer, they can continue producing electricity on cloudy and rainy days. It is only once it becomes dark that solar panels stop generating electricity.

How Much Could Solar Panels Save You?

Reduce the Amount of Electricity You Need to Buy

£470 – £580 PER YEAR*

The financial benefit of installing solar panels will depend on factors including your property, the size of your system, your electricity usage and when you use energy throughout the day.

How Much Do Solar Panels Cost?

As a general guide, the supplied information estimates that solar panel installations in the North of England typically cost around:

£6,000 – £9,000*

A typical three-bedroom home with a 10-panel system is estimated at approximately: £7,800*

* figures are based on or which source the £* quoted are from Solarlove.gov

Add Battery Storage

Adding battery storage allows surplus electricity produced by your solar panels during the day to be stored and used later.

Instead of immediately exporting surplus electricity, you can keep more of the electricity you’ve generated available for your own home.

This can help reduce the amount of chargeable electricity you need to purchase from the grid when your solar panels are producing little or no power.

Battery storage can be installed at the same time as your solar panels, or you may decide to add a battery later.

Is your roof suitable for solar panels?

Sufficient roof space - a typical 10-panel system may need around 20m' of space.

Good roof condition - your roof must be in a suitable condition to support an installation.

Good daylight - south-facing is best. East and west work well too (15-20% less electricity vs south).
