A note from the Uswitch solar team

There's one myth that puts most people off solar before they even start – the weather. We clear things up below.

Hi,

Did you know solar panels don't actually need sunshine to generate electricity? They run on daylight. So even on a grey Tuesday in February, your roof is still working hard for you. Sure, output falls a little on cloudy days, but it doesn't stop.

What really matters is not cloud cover. It’s things like roof direction, shading, and how you use electricity at home. So don’t let the weather cloud your judgement on solar. Take a look at your personalised projection now.
