Today's weather - cold morning with bright sunny skies


If you've already got your solar panel installation up and working, then despite the shortness of the days, this morning is a real bonus for electricity generation.

Firstly, temperatures (in Derbyshire) were down to just above freezing, and secondly, the skies are clear with very bright sunshine.

We've already discussed how photovoltaic (electricity generating) solar panels work more efficiently in cold temperatures and with the sun, un-impeded by clouds, today should be a great day for generation levels.

Are you keeping a note of how efficient your panels are? What sort of readings did you get for today? Do share...
