Solar panels are one of the most effective ways to reduce your carbon footprint, save on energy bills, and contribute to a more sustainable future. At EMMWAY, we specialize in providing high-quality solar panels designed to integrate seamlessly with new-build homes. Here, we’ll explore the many benefits of installing solar panels, address common concerns about the UK’s weather, and explain how you can maximize your investment.
Why Solar Panels Are a Smart Choice
Lower Energy Bills: By generating your own electricity, you can significantly reduce your reliance on the grid and save money on energy costs.
Earn Money from Excess Energy: Through schemes like the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), companies like Octopus Energy pay you for the unused electricity your solar panels generate and feed back into the grid.
Energy Independence: Combined with a battery storage system, solar panels give you greater control over your energy supply, storing power for use during peak times.
Eco-Friendly Living: Solar energy is renewable and clean, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change.
Addressing Concerns About UK Weather
One of the most common questions we hear is, “Do solar panels work in the UK?” The answer is a resounding yes! Here’s why:
Optimized Systems: At EMMWAY, we supply and install systems that maximize energy production, even in less-than-perfect weather.
Effective in Cloudy Conditions: Solar panels do not require direct sunlight to generate electricity. They can harness energy from daylight, even on overcast days.
Reliable Year-Round: The UK receives an average of 1,500 hours of sunlight annually. Modern solar panels are highly efficient and designed to operate in diverse weather conditions.
Why Battery Storage is Essential
To fully benefit from solar energy, a battery storage system is essential. It allows you to:
- Store unused energy generated during the day for use at night or during peak demand.
- Ensure a reliable energy supply during outages.
- Maximize your energy independence and savings.
