How Berwickshire compares
Berwickshire ranks 41st of the 85 counties we track for solar yield, 12% above the Scotland average of our estimates. At 2.57 peak sun hours a day the sums lean on a healthy mix: £247 of the year one benefit here comes from solar you use yourself, with export at 12p adding £604.
A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Berwickshire generates around 5,972 kWh a year, worth around £851 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
The charger is in the installed price but left out of payback: charging savings depend on your mileage and tariff, which the design call models properly.

Common questions about solar in Berwickshire
What could a roof in Berwickshire generate?
PVGIS puts a roof in Berwickshire at 939 kWh per kWp a year, 2.57 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons.
What does a typical solar system cost in Berwickshire?
A typical 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Berwickshire costs around £6,360 installed, at £1,000 per kWp before any battery.
Would a system in Berwickshire need approval from the network operator?
Most home solar and battery systems qualify for the simpler G98 notification, made to the network operator (DNO) after installation rather than before. A minority, usually larger systems, need the fuller G99 process instead. Your design call checks which applies in Berwickshire before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide and our DNO explainer cover it in full.
