This is a function of the resistance of the materials, and the temperate difference. The dark roof will mean you have a warmer roof cavity - and will therefore lose less heat across the ceiling. Having more/higher ceiling insulation will mean you have more resistance to heat loss across the ceiling as well. Both result in less energy (heat) lost through the ceiling. The dark roof will give you higher use in summer - but in this case - this difference is offset by a greater energy saving in winter.
