What is Solar Power?

Solar panels use energy from the world’s most powerful and reliable energy source, the sun. Solar panels convert the energy from sunlight into electricity, which can either be stored in the accompanying batteries or used instantly to power your home, your home vehicle charging point and much more!

The battery systems will be connected to your solar panels, storing surplus energy from the panels, to be used to generate reliable and cheap energy during the darker nights and evenings and on heavily overcast days. If you don’t use all of your power, you can also easily sell your unused solar power to the national grid for a small profit!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, solar panels can work effectively in cloudy or rainy weather, although their efficiency may be reduced compared to sunny days.

Solar panels harness sunlight, and even on overcast days, they can capture diffuse sunlight, which means they can still generate electricity. Many modern solar panels are designed to perform well in various weather conditions, utilising advanced technology that maximises their energy absorption.

While a cloudy day might decrease the output solar panels can continue to function and contribute to your energy needs, ensuring that you benefit from renewable energy regardless of the weather conditions.

Find out more about solar panels in our blog post: ‘Do solar panels work in the winter?‘ and ‘Your guide to installing solar panels‘.

After installing solar panels, maintenance is relatively minimal but essential for ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

Regular inspections should be conducted to check for any debris, dirt, or foliage that may obstruct sunlight, as even a small amount can reduce energy output.

It’s advisable to clean the panels at least twice a year, though rainfall often helps to wash away lighter dirt. Professional maintenance checks every few years can also be beneficial, as technicians can assess the wiring, inverters, and overall system integrity, ensuring that your investment continues to operate efficiently for years to come.

At Datel Electrical, our solar panel installations are designed to be versatile and adaptable, making them suitable for a range of roof types, including pitched, flat, and even atypical designs.

However, the effectiveness of solar panels can vary depending on factors such as roof orientation, angle, and shading from surrounding structures. Our experienced team conducts a thorough assessment of your property to determine the best installation approach, ensuring optimal energy production and efficiency.

Whether you have a traditional slate roof or a modern flat roof, we’ll work with you to create a customised solution that maximises the benefits of solar energy for your home.
