Solar Energy Myths: The Facts!

The world shifts towards sustainable energy sources, especially solar energy. Yet, despite its growing popularity and numerous benefits, misconceptions about solar power still persist, creating barriers to change to solar energy options. In this blog, we aim to clear the air and shine a light on the truth behind solar energy.

Myth 1: Solar Panels Don’t Work in Cold or Cloudy Weather

One of the biggest misconceptions about solar panels is that they only work in direct sunlight. Solar panels can generate electricity even on cloudy days! Solar technology is designed to capture a broader spectrum of light, including diffused sunlight. So even in winter you are able to use solar panels for production of energy.

Myth 2: Solar Energy Is Too Expensive

The initial investment in solar panels can indeed seem daunting, but the long-term savings often outweigh the upfront costs. Many governments bodies offer incentives, rebates, and tax credits that can significantly reduce installation expenses. Additionally, solar energy decreases or eliminates your monthly electricity bills, meaning that many homeowners see a return on their investment within a few years.

Our administration team can tell you all about these incentives, tax discounts etc. They also can find you the best electricity and compensation rates, to keep your costs low and compensation high.

Myth 3: Solar Panels Require Constant Maintenance

Solar panels are surprisingly low maintenance. They are designed to withstand varying weather conditions and require very little upkeep. Yearly cleaning is advisable to remove dust and debris, but in most areas, rain does the job. Most solar panel manufacturers offer warranties ranging from 20 to 25 years, and many systems can last even longer with minimal maintenance.

Our technical support team can organise technical inspections and offer cleaning services for solar panels, so you can have peace of mind and be assured that the system works perfectly, and u get the most out of it.

Myth 4: You Need a Big Roof to Go Solar

While more roof space can accommodate more panels, many homeowners with smaller roofs or limited space can still benefit from solar energy. The solar panels now a days are very powerful so they can produce much more energy on a small surface than years ago. When installing microinverters there is even the option to use all four wind directions, which gives you more flexibility in layout options.

Our sales specialist can make a personalised quotation where you can see the best possible layout for solar panels on your roof. The quotation includes also a report about production, revenue and savings.
