I live in the UK. The ratio between solar output on a typically sunny summer day and a typical cloudy winter day is about 20. So your "a bit" is doing a hell of a lot of work there.

Globally seen the Uk is close to the arctic circle. It is one of the worst cases
Right but it's not exactly the latitude that's the issue. On sunny days in winter I get plenty of power. The issue is the weather - only about 1/3 of the days in winter are sunny.
Yeah, my comment was a simplification - like most things trying to describe local effects globally are. The UK doubles as unusually cloudy weather and relatively short days.
