Real satellite data for Dundee, real installed pricing, and the same honest model we run for every place we cover.
How Dundee compares
Dundee is one of 7 Angus towns we track, and it ranks 3rd of 7 for solar yield. The House of Commons Library settlement data classes it as a large town of 124,525 people. At 935 kWh per kWp a year, a typical 12 panel system here pays for itself in around 7.5 years on the 12p scenario: £848 of year one benefit against £6,360 of installed hardware, £247 of that benefit from cutting 26.32p imports with your own generation.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Dundee's own yield, and at Dundee's 935 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 Dundee sits with Dundee City, and its official House of Commons Library settlement class is large 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.

A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Dundee generates around 5,947 kWh a year, worth around £848 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Dundee's own coordinates (56.45841, -2.97367), using the same 26.32p/kWh import value and £1,000 per kWp installed pricing as every Clearline estimate, with the full methodology, sourcing and assumptions set out on our help page.

Common questions about solar in Dundee
What could a roof in Dundee generate?
PVGIS puts a roof in Dundee at 935 kWh per kWp a year, 2.56 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons.
What does a typical solar system cost in Dundee?
A typical 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Dundee costs around £6,360 installed, at £1,000 per kWp before any battery.
Would a system in Dundee need a G99 application?
Most home solar and battery systems qualify for the simpler G98 notification, made to the network operator (DNO) after installation rather than before. A minority, usually larger systems, need the fuller G99 process instead. Your design call checks which applies in Dundee before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.
What could I earn from exporting in Dundee?
On the 12p export scenario, that 12 panel system sends about 5,010 kWh a year to the grid, worth around £601. The tariff guide compares the export rates that could apply to your setup.

G98 vs G99: the 28-day form and the eight-week wait, in plain English
One number on your quote decides between a formality and an eight week wait.
Read the guide →What a battery gateway actually does
Without a gateway your system shuts down when the grid does. Here is what the box actually does.
Read the guide →Three phase and EV charging: what actually changes
Three phase buys 22kW charging. Most cars cannot use it, and load balancing usually solves the real problem.
Read the guide →Are heat pumps worth it? The real 2026 numbers
Electricity costs 3.3x gas per kWh. A heat pump is about 3x as efficient. The numbers nearly cancel out.
Read the guide →Why tariff choice moves payback more than kit choice
Identical kit, five times the export income. The tariff decision worked through with August 2026 rates.
Read the guide →What MCS certification actually is, and why your export payments depend on it
The badge that decides whether your solar earns export payments. It cannot be added later.

Same satellite dataset, same assumptions, so the differences are real geography rather than modelling noise.
