Are solar panels worth it in the UK? | Solar panel output in winter

UK winters tend to be pretty gloomy, so it’s natural to wonder if solar panels actually produce any electricity during this period.

In this video, our solar experts Charlie and Josh wade into the weeds of whether solar panels work in winter (spoiler: they do). They explain what percentage of your solar panels’ annual output is generated in the coldest months of the year, why you’ll need to rely on the grid a fair bit, and why this isn’t a problem.

And if you’re stressed about snow on your panels, find out near the end of the video how to do something about it.
