Does The UK Enjoy Adequate Bright Days To Make Solar Energy Panels Warrant The Solar Energy Prices That They Cost?

We could believe that the United Kingdom is not that sunny, but it depends on your locale; North Scotland could be snowy and cold more than it is temperate, and southern England could be the reverse. As a matter of fact the UK receives something like 60% of the sun that the equator receives. When it comes to using Solar Energy Panels, these can in fact produce electricity in daylight on a cloudy day, although clearly, bright sunlight will produce more electricity.

So generally, the answer to the question is “yes”, although there are more conditions than how much sunlight there is. The position of the home that has the Solar Energy Panels fixed is important, for the Solar Energy Panels must be sited onto a roof with a south facing view, or within 900 of south. Also the designated roof should not be in shadow by buildings or trees that could block light or the Solar Energy Panels could well never get up to their full providing output. In these positions, the Solar Energy Prices, which work out at something like £12,000 for a normal family home Solar Energy Panels system, would not have been spent cleverly. More to the point, the Solar Energy Panels business would have done a poor job in not alerting the householder in the first place if they had significant problems with the location, and would have charged the Solar Energy Prices in an unethical manner.

With the hours of daylight and sunlight we get, Solar Energy Panels surely make sense as a green energy solution, not only to aid the environment but also to make savings for the householder. Yes, the Solar Energy Prices of something like £12,000 will have to be paid, but once the Solar Energy Panels are fixed they will be providing electricity right away and it is estimated that this normal Solar Energy Panels system can produce something like 40% of the home users electricity needs. If the householder is on the national grid then they can export left over electricity back to the grid and be credited for it, as well as being credited for what they produce in the first place. An estimate of a 10 to 12 years payback time for the Solar Energy Prices is common.
