Solar hot water is brilliant... we had this in the eighties a couple of thousand kilometres north west of you ;-)

The panels designed at the time were heavy as hell because they actually used glass and steel plating, but it provided some seriously hot water even in winter (although there we still had to backfill with an electric tank heater once the sun set).
