What is a solar PV system?

Solar PV systems – a collection of solar panels – turn sunlight into electricity through the ‘solar cells’ they contain. These cells are made from thin layers of a ‘semiconductor’ material (traditionally silicon) between layers of glass.

Can a solar PV system be combined with battery storage?

Solar PV systems can be combined with battery storage, allowing you to store surplus energy generated by the panels and use it when you need to, usually later in the evening. Although domestic battery storage is currently quite expensive, the technology is developing rapidly, and costs are falling.

How do bifacial solar panels work?

Bifacial solar panels also exist, which can generate electricity from both sides of the panel. To actually use the electricity generated by your solar panels, you need an inverter. This converts the direct current (DC) produced by the panels into usable alternating current (AC).

How efficient are solar panels in the UK?

Most domestic solar panels in the UK are around 15-24% efficient. If your available roof space is extremely limited, it's important to opt for the highest efficiency modules available. This ensures maximum energy generation to cover your entire energy load. The best solar panels in the UK come with efficiency rates exceeding 22%.

How do I choose a solar panel?

Find out more about types of solar panels and other buying advice for solar panels. To help decide which type of solar cells to go for, look at cost per watt (£/W) of power output. You can do this by dividing the total cost of the solar system you are being quoted for by the total power output of the system.
