Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. When daylight hits the panels, they generate direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted into usable alternating current (AC) electricity by an inverter.
Here’s how it works:
  • Panels absorb sunlight and create electricity.
  • An inverter converts DC electricity into AC, making it usable for your home.
  • Your home uses the solar energy to power appliances, lights, and EV chargers.
  • Excess energy can be stored or exported – either in a solar battery for later use or sent back to the grid for payments through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG).
Solar helps lower energy bills, reduce reliance on the grid, and cut carbon emissions. Contact AJ Renewables for a free solar design and see how much you could save!

Yes! Solar panels work all year round, including winter. They generate electricity from daylight, not direct sunlight, meaning they still produce energy even on cloudy, rainy, or snowy days.
Here’s how they perform in winter:
  • Panels absorb daylight to generate electricity, even in overcast conditions.
  • Cold temperatures can improve efficiency, as solar panels work better in cooler climates.
  • Shorter days mean less total generation, but a battery storage system can help store excess energy or charge from off-peak tariffs.
  • Time-of-use tariffs allow you to charge a battery at cheaper night rates, helping cut winter electricity bills by up to two-thirds.
Even in Scotland, solar is a great investment for reducing energy bills all year round. Get a free solar design with AJ Renewables to see how much you could save!

Not always – but they can with the right setup!
Standard grid-tied solar panel systems shut down during a power cut for safety reasons. This prevents electricity from flowing back into the grid while engineers work on repairs.
However, you can still have power during an outage if you have:
  • A solar battery with backup capability – This stores excess energy and can supply your home when the grid goes down.
  • An inverter with blackout protection – Some advanced hybrid inverters, like Tesla Powerwall or GivEnergy, allow solar panels to keep generating and storing power even during an outage.
  • An off-grid or islanding system – If fully off-grid, your solar setup is independent of the national grid and will continue working.
If backup power is important to you, we can design a system with full blackout protection. Get in touch for a free solar and battery consultation!

The best solar panels depend on your needs, budget, and roof space!
There’s no one-size-fits-all, but here’s what to look for when choosing panels:
  • Efficiency – Higher efficiency means more power from less space. Aiko and Trina Solar panels are among the best for high efficiency.
  • Warranty & Lifespan – Look for panels with at least 25 years of performance warranty for long-term reliability.
  • Aesthetics – Want a sleek, all-black panel? Aiko and Trina offer premium-looking options that blend well with roofs.
  • Price vs. Performance – Some panels cost more but generate more power over time, giving a better return on investment.
  • Brand Reputation – Choosing well-known, MCS-certified brands ensures your panels are tested for UK conditions.

At AJ Renewables, we install only trusted, high-quality brands like Aiko and Trina Solar to give you the best balance of performance, durability, and value.

Yes, solar panels can charge an electric car by generating electricity that is either used directly to power your home and EV charger or stored in a battery system for later use.

By pairing solar panels with an EV charger, you can harness free, renewable energy to charge your vehicle, reducing reliance on the grid and lowering your energy costs.

For maximum efficiency, a solar battery storage system can store excess solar energy during the day, allowing you to charge your EV at night or during periods of low solar generation. This setup ensures that you make the most of your solar investment and drive on clean, self-generated power.

At AJ Renewables, we offer smart EV chargers that seamlessly integrate with your solar system, allowing you to optimize charging times and maximize savings. Get in touch to find out how we can design a solar and EV charging solution tailored to your needs.

Yes, solar panels can generate electricity even on cloudy days, making them effective across the UK.

Solar panels are low-maintenance and can be monitored remotely through various monitoring apps (installed with our systems).

Savings depend on your energy consumption, system size, and how you use your energy. With solar, you can reduce your reliance on the grid, and if you add battery storage, you can store excess energy for later use—maximising savings even further.
Plus, you can get paid for exporting unused energy back to the grid through your energy supplier. Because every home is different, we offer a free solar design service, where we tailor a system to your needs and provide a detailed estimate of your potential savings and earnings based on your actual energy usage.

The cost varies based on system size, panel quality, and additional features like battery storage. Our solar packages start from £4,500, but every home is different.

Solar battery storage systems store excess energy generated by your solar panels, allowing you to use it when sunlight is unavailable, such as at night or on cloudy days.
Many homeowners also use battery storage to charge from the grid during cheaper off-peak hours, especially in winter when solar generation is lower. This helps maximize savings on electricity bills and reduces reliance on expensive peak-time energy rates.

Solar batteries are built for long-term performance. Our GivEnergy batteries come with a 12-year manufacturer’s warranty, while Tesla Powerwall offers a 10-year warranty, ensuring reliability and peace of mind.
With proper use and maintenance, many solar batteries continue working well beyond their warranty period, making them a great long-term investment for energy savings and grid independence.

EV chargers are categorised into three levels based on speed and power output:

 

Level 1 (Slow Charging): Uses a standard household plug, typically taking 8-12 hours for a full charge.

Level 2 (Fast Charging): Requires a dedicated charging unit and can charge most EVs in 3-6 hours.
Level 3 (Rapid Charging): Also known as DC fast charging, can charge up to 80% in as little as 20-60 minutes, ideal for long-distance travel and commercial use.
We install a range of high-quality home EV chargers to suit different needs and budgets.

Charging times vary based on the charger’s power output and the vehicle’s battery capacity. Most homeowners charge their EVs overnight using a Level 2 charger, often taking advantage of cheaper time-of-use tariffs to maximise savings.

On average, a full charge can take 4-8 hours, depending on the battery size and charging speed.
