How Bexhill-on-Sea compares
Among the places we publish figures for, Bexhill-on-Sea is one of 33 Sussex towns we track, and it ranks joint 16th of 33 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 45,422 residents, and its roofs see 3.13 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 7,257 kWh of generation, of which around 6,320 kWh is exported at 12p for £758 a year, with £247 saved on electricity you would otherwise buy at 26.32p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Bexhill-on-Sea's own yield, and at Bexhill-on-Sea's 1,141 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.

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.
