6 FAQs about [Northern solar power generation and heating]

Do solar panels generate electricity?

That said, the rate at which solar panels generate electricity varies depending on the amount of direct sunlight and the quality, size, number and location of panels in use. Even in winter, solar panel technology is still effective; at one point in February 2022, solar was providing more than 20% of the UK’s electricity.1

What is a generation availability heat map?

It’s a new, faster way to get approval to connect residential low-carbon technology to the grid. Our generation availability heat map is designed to give you a high-level indication (red/amber/green) of our network’s capability to facilitate new connections. In addition to a web view, you can also access free, downloadable network data sets.

How can the solar industry help the UK's farmers?

The solar industry is also working closely with Britain’s farmers to reduce their energy costs and improve the sustainability of their operations. To meet the UK government’s net zero target, the Climate Change Committee estimates that between 75-90 gigawatts (GW) of solar power will be needed by 2050.

What are the benefits of solar farms & agrivoltaics?

Plus, solar farms can actually help to give intensively farmed land an opportunity to recover, while still providing income for the farming business. Agrivoltaics is an innovative approach that enables solar energy generation and agricultural practices. Growing crops underneath solar PV panels has proven to have many benefits.

Will the UK's first transmission-connected solar farm reduce the carbon payback period?

The UK's first transmission-connected solar farm, which went live in 2023, is expected to generate enough to power the equivalent of over 17,300 homes annually and displace 20,500 tons of CO2 each year compared to traditional energy production. As manufacturing processes advance, it’s likely that the carbon payback period will decrease further.

Are solar farms a good investment?

Solar farms can provide valuable income for farmers and they can still be used for grazing – in fact, sheep can help to keep solar farms maintained. As solar parks generate income, they provide UK farmers with a revenue stream to continue food production on their land and support other aspects of their agricultural business.
