Do solar panels work on cloudy days?

With energy bills increasing we are seeing an increased demand in renewable energy and more homes and workplaces installing solar panels. At Pro Solar we are experts in capturing solar energy and generating direct current electricity through advanced technology.

Our advanced Solar Technology helps our customers achieve substantial cost-savings by generating their own clean electricity.

Photovoltaic cells captured from solar panels depends on sunlight, and for home and business owners in the UK, you may be thinking we don’t get enough sunlight, so how would solar panels work on cloudy days?

Pro Solar use high-quality panels that have better efficiency ratings to generate more electricity from the same amount of sunlight, maximizing your investment, and whilst our durable and reliable panels withstand environmental factors, we can tailor solutions for maximum efficiency.

To get even more out of your system, we recommend pairing your Solar Panels with battery storage.

Battery storage allows you to store excess energy generated by your solar system for later use. During the sunny days when your solar panels are generating more electricity, the surplus energy can be stored in battery storage.

During cloudy periods and night time, energy can be used from the battery storage, reducing reliance on the grid.

By utilising stored energy during peak hours when electricity rates are highest, you can significantly lower your energy bills. This translates to greater long-term savings on your utility costs.

As technology advances, battery storage systems have become more efficient and affordable, making them an essential component of modern solar energy solutions.
