“solar panels at any location in the northern hemisphere will produce less power in the winter than in the summer.”
That’s true, but this article also ignores that power consumption is lower in the winter.
Looking at the Southwest, the only part of the country solar is truly useful, solar production is about 25% lower in January than it is in June. But consumption is about 30% lower when comparing those same months.
How much does solar generate in terms of total energy production in the Southwest, percentage wise?
, but this article also ignores that power consumption is lower in the winter.
.......do you mean to infer that the further north you get, that there is no need for heat in the winter. The Southwest uses electricity for cooling in summer, less so,in winter. Surely, you don’t live in anywhere that has cold winter. Less power from the sun, and less heat from the sun, at the same time.
