Sunlight in Oxfordshire, in numbers
Oxfordshire's best month is July, at 124.4 kWh per kWp; December manages 36. Over the year that comes to 1,015 kWh per kWp, 10% above the mean of our 85 county estimates.

For scale: 1,015 kWh per kWp in Oxfordshire against 925, our GB average (the mean of our 85 county PVGIS estimates), which puts Oxfordshire 10% above it.
How Oxfordshire compares
Oxfordshire ranks 19th of the 85 counties we track for solar yield, which puts export income near the top of the country. On the 12p scenario a 12 panel system here sends about 5,519 kWh to the grid a year on top of the £247 it saves you directly, so oversizing the array is usually the right call.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below opens on Oxfordshire's own PVGIS yield and prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery; your free design call reworks every number for your roof.
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.

Price this for your roof

Generation from PVGIS v5.2 (European Commission JRC, SARAH3), retrieved August 2026 for a representative point in Oxfordshire (51.8085, -1.2871), assuming 1 kWp, 14% system loss, 35 degree pitch, due south. Import valued at 26.32p/kWh (Ofgem price cap average, Oct to Dec 2026); off-peak charging at 8.5p/kWh where used (a supplier's published off-peak rate, checked September 2026); export at the scenario you pick, from the dated tariff table. Prices are installed pricing, August 2026, standard installations; 530W LONGi panels at £1,000 per kWp. Estimates for illustration, not a quote: your free design call prices your actual roof.
SSEN and your Oxfordshire connection
The centre of Oxfordshire sits in Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks' Southern England licence area on NESO's boundary map, so SSEN is the network operator (DNO) a system here is registered with.
Most home systems stay within 3.68kW per phase of inverter output, which puts them on G98, a notification to SSEN within 28 days of switch-on. Panel count does not decide it; the inverter and any battery do.
Above that, G99 means applying before the work is booked. SSEN says it can take up to 45 working days to issue a quotation for a generation connection above 3.68kW per phase and up to 50kW.
Parts of Oxfordshire are on a different network: some of its towns are served by NGED and UK Power Networks. Each town page names its own operator, worked out from that town's own location.

Heat pumps and EV charging in Oxfordshire
A heat pump in Oxfordshire
In December, the darkest month here, 12 panels in Oxfordshire make about 230 kWh. That is when a heat pump runs hardest, so its running cost in Oxfordshire comes down to the tariff and the flow temperature rather than the roof.
In England, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air source or ground source heat pump and £2,500 towards an air-to-air one, with £1,500 more until March 2027 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Oxfordshire
Oxfordshire's July output, about 790 kWh from 12 panels, is several times the 70 kWh or so a typical home uses in daylight that month on our calculator's settings. Daytime charging turns that surplus into miles.
If you rent, or own a flat, and have private off-street parking, the government chargepoint grant covers 75% of the cost, capped at £500 a socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above prices a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Oxfordshire solar questions
How much electricity do solar panels make in Oxfordshire?
About 6,460 kWh a year from 12 panels (6.36 kWp), on PVGIS satellite data for Oxfordshire: 1,015 kWh per kWp, or 2.78 peak sun hours a day on average. July is the strongest month, at about 790 kWh.
Is solar more expensive in Oxfordshire?
Prices on this site are the same everywhere: £1,000 per kWp installed, which puts a 12-panel system at £6,360 in Oxfordshire, and a Duracell Dura16 installed with solar at £4,450 on top. The local part is generation, about 6,460 kWh a year here, which is what drives payback.
Which DNO covers Oxfordshire, and what does it need from me?
Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) covers the centre of Oxfordshire. A home system of up to 3.68kW per phase is notified to SSEN within 28 days of commissioning under G98, and nothing waits on approval. Larger outputs need a G99 application before work starts. SSEN says it can take up to 45 working days to issue a quotation for a generation connection above 3.68kW per phase and up to 50kW.
What could I earn from exporting in Oxfordshire?
On the 12p export scenario, a 12-panel system in Oxfordshire sends about 5,519 kWh a year to the grid, worth around £662. The export rates table compares what each supplier pays.
How much solar does Oxfordshire get in December?
December is the low point: about 230 kWh from a 12-panel system in Oxfordshire, on PVGIS data, rising to 790 kWh in July. From November to February the same system makes about 1,130 kWh in total, which is why a battery charged off-peak does more of the work in winter.
