How Burgess Hill compares
Among the places we publish figures for, Burgess Hill is one of 33 Sussex towns we track, and it ranks 25th of 33 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 35,279 residents, and its roofs see 3.05 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 7,079 kWh of generation, of which around 6,142 kWh is exported at 12p for £737 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 Burgess Hill's own yield, and at Burgess Hill's 1,113 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.
Any planning application in Burgess Hill sits with Mid Sussex, and its official House of Commons Library settlement class is medium 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.

What does a typical solar system cost in Burgess Hill?
