FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Plymouth's coastal position means it benefits from strong solar irradiance and above-average sunshine hours for the UK — typically around 1,550–1,650 hours per year. Modern solar panels generate electricity from daylight rather than direct sunshine alone, meaning your system will produce energy year-round even on overcast Devon days.
