How Bewdley compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Bewdley. It is one of 13 Worcestershire towns we track, and it ranks 9th of 13 for solar yield, a town of 8,156 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 978 kWh per kWp a year, 2.68 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £881 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £634 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Bewdley's own yield, and at Bewdley's 978 kWh per kWp it prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery. Your free design call reworks every number for your actual roof, its shading and your usage.
Wyre Forest is the planning authority covering Bewdley, which the House of Commons Library classes as a small town.
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.

Without a gateway your system shuts down when the grid does. Here is what the box actually does.

Every surplus kWh is 3.6 to 5 miles. Whether that beats a 7p overnight rate is arithmetic.

The top export rates are acquisition offers. Here is how to price the condition.
