Solar panels keep generating electricity throughout winter – but how much can you realistically expect in the UK?

Winter might seem like the worst season for getting energy from solar panels, due to less sunlight and more snow, but as it turns out, the opposite is true.

Solar panels and snow are often framed as natural enemies, but the physics of how panels generate electricity tells a more nuanced story. In cold, bright conditions, modern photovoltaic systems can ...

Solar panels continue to generate power effectively during winter months. Cold temperatures actually improve their efficiency. Snowfall does not always halt production. Light snow allows sunlight to ...

She says about a month after installation, the ceiling started leaking. She concedes the company came back multiple times, but says the problem continued.

UC Davis engineers have invented a Stirling engine that captures Earth’s escaping heat to generate power from the night sky.

Co-founder of two spinouts and an education charity, Professor Sam Stranks is committed to getting new ideas and technologies out into the world where they can make a difference.

You can use multiple light sources to charge solar lights, but they work best with sunlight, so it's almost always better to leave them out in the sun. They use the same technology as solar panels, ...
