Spring is in the air

Spring is almost here! 🌞 🌱

And that means longer days, warmer weather and the perfect time to get your solar system ready for peak performance!

A spring clean doesn’t have to just mean your cupboards, why not spring clean your solar system? Take a little extra care now, and that will make a big difference to how much energy you can generate, and money you can save as we begin to head into summer!

Watch out for growing shade

Spring means life, which can mean that your trees and gardens are bursting with new growth and sometimes this can cast shadows over your panels. Even the smallest of branch or a build-up of leaves can impact performance, so take a look and remove any overgrowth.

Give your panels a clean

Winter rain and dust can leave a film of dirt over your panels, which will reduce efficiency. A light clean (by a professional) will help your panels capture as much of the beautiful spring sunshine as possible!

Make the most of daylight hours

Taking advantage of the longer days doesn’t just mean that you can walk the dog at 8pm, but you can run your energy hungry appliances (washing machines dish washer, pool pumps) during longer daylight hours. This way, instead of pulling power from the grid it is being generated from your solar.

Tip* Putting your appliances on delayed start/timers is also a fantastic way to help utilise your solar power generation.

Consider a solar battery

Spring is the perfect time to think about adding on that battery you have been thinking about as electricity bills continue to creep up! A battery will allow you to store excess solar energy during the day, for you to use at night which will further reduce your electricity bills.  And, keep in mind the amazing new battery rebates that will decrease in 2026.
