“Singapore's energy policy is to not favor one form of energy over the other, but rather organize supply and demand through a market-based platform, the National Electricity Market of Singapore (NEMS),” Thomas Reindl, Deputy CEO of the Solar Energy Research Institute.

During hot summer months, panels can overheat, reducing their overall energy output and even permanent damage to their cells, resulting in reduced electricity production.
The influence of weather on solar panel efficiency is a critical factor for optimizing energy production in solar power systems. Understanding these impacts can help businesses and homeowners make informed decisions about their solar installations.
In a nutshell: Hotter solar panels produce less energy from the same amount of sunlight. Luckily, the effect of temperature on solar panel output can be calculated and this can help us determine how our solar system will perform on summer days. The resulting number is known as the temperature coefficient.
Answer: No, solar panels do not produce more power in excessive heat. In fact, high temperatures reduce the efficiency of solar panels. For every degree Celsius above 25°C (77°F), the efficiency of a solar panel typically decreases by 0.5% to 0.7%. This phenomenon is known as the temperature coefficient.
As surprising as it may sound, even solar panels face performance challenges due to high temperatures. Just like marathon runners in extreme heat, solar panels operate best within an optimal temperature range. Most of us would assume that the stronger and hotter the sun is, the more electricity our solar panels will produce.
In hotter conditions, panels can reach temperatures significantly above the ambient air temperature. Even though solar panel manufacturers and installers apply mechanisms to prevent solar panel overheating, in extremely hot conditions, the energy output of solar panels might decline significantly.
Cloud Cover: Clouds can significantly reduce the amount of sunlight reaching solar panels. On cloudy days, solar panels can still generate electricity, but the output is reduced. Depending on cloud density, energy production can drop by 10% to 25%. Rain: While rain can reduce solar irradiance, it also has a cleaning effect on solar panels.
