Do solar panels work in winter?
This is one of the most common questions our team receives regarding our residential solar power systems. The short answer is yes, solar panels work even when it’s below freezing, because they convert sunlight into electricity, not heat.
In fact, a solar panel’s efficiency is actually improved in lower temperatures – rather, it’s winter’s shorter sunshine hours that can decrease output from June to August. However, the decrease is not drastic enough to write off using solar power in your home.
