Fuse's Fast Facts
Store Your Power
With a solar battery, you can store the excess energy you generate during the day and use it at night, giving you energy independence and lower bills.
They Work on Cloudy Days
Solar panels are powered by daylight, not just direct sunlight. They still generate a significant amount of electricity even on a classic overcast day in Scotland!
Increase Your Home's Value
Homes with solar panel installations are often more attractive to buyers, potentially increasing the property's value and making it sell faster.
Myth Busters!
Myth: "Solar panels are too expensive."
The Truth:
The cost of solar technology has fallen dramatically. With government schemes and long-term savings on your energy bills, an installation is a smart investment that pays for itself over time.
Myth: "They don't work in cold weather."
The Truth:
Solar panels actually work more efficiently in cooler temperatures! They run on light, not heat, so a bright, crisp winter day can be great for generating power.
Myth: "They require a lot of maintenance."
The Truth:
Solar panels are incredibly durable and have no moving parts. They typically only need an occasional clean to remove any dirt or leaves, ensuring they work at their best.
Myth: "I'll be without power at night."
The Truth:
This is what solar batteries and the grid are for! You can use your stored battery power at night, or simply draw from the grid as you normally would, ensuring you always have electricity.
