How Caister-on-Sea compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Caister-on-Sea. It is one of 16 Norfolk towns we track, and it ranks 1st of 16 for solar yield, a town of 8,904 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,056 kWh per kWp a year, 2.89 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £941 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £694 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Caister-on-Sea's own yield, and at Caister-on-Sea's 1,056 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.
Planning applications here go through Great Yarmouth; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Caister-on-Sea 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.
