Solar power has a small but growing role in electricity production in the United Kingdom. There were few installations until 2010, when the UK government mandated subsidies in the form of a feed-in tariff (FIT), paid for by all electricity consumers. In the following years the cost of photovoltaic (PV) panels fell, and the FIT rate

6 FAQs about [Solar power generation is the West Power]
Is solar PV a good source of electricity?
The potential for clean, carbon-free electricity generation from solar photovoltaic (PV) sources in most countries dwarfs their current electricity demand. Around 20% of the global population lives in 70 countries boasting excellent conditions for solar PV.
Does a solar PV system generate more electricity a year?
A solar PV system on the south coast of England for example will generate more electricity annual than one of a similar size, orientation and inclination in the north of Scotland. A solar PV system on the south coast of England for example will generate more electricity annually.
Do solar panels generate more electricity in the morning?
A south facing solar PV system will tend to generate more around noon. The sun rises in the east and so east-facing PV panels will have maximum generation part-way through the morning. A west-facing array will tend to generate most electricity part-way through the afternoon as shown to the right.
Does West African region have a high potential for solar energy?
Table 3. Generation capacities in baseline scenario.West African region has a high potential of solar energy for the installation of solar PV plants as indicated by the 10 km × 10 km resolution of Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI) data in Fig. 3 ( ECOWAS Observatory for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, 2017 ).
How much electricity will solar PV generate in the UK?
The installed generating capacity at September 2015 was 8.19 GWp and, based on the above yield, should generate around 7860 GWh of electricity in a typical year or 2.6% of UK consumption (2014). Based on current trends, Solar PV electricity should exceed 3% of UK consumption in 2016.
