How Dursley compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Dursley. It is one of 24 Gloucestershire towns we track, and it ranks joint 19th of 24 for solar yield, a town of 8,146 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 991 kWh per kWp a year, 2.72 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £891 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £644 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Dursley's own yield, and at Dursley's 991 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.
Dursley sits within Stroud, its local planning authority, and the House of Commons Library classes it 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.

A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Dursley generates around 6,303 kWh a year, worth around £890 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Dursley's own coordinates (51.68226, -2.3525), 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.

Would a system in Dursley 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 Dursley before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.

How to clean solar panels, and whether you need to at all
Cleaning is oversold and pigeon mesh is undersold. The numbers behind both.
Read the guide →Adding a battery to solar panels you already own
Retrofitting a battery to working solar is straightforward. The paperwork is where people trip up.
Read the guide →Charging an EV from your own solar
Every surplus kWh is 3.6 to 5 miles. Whether that beats a 7p overnight rate is arithmetic.

It moves heat rather than making it. The cycle, the efficiency numbers and the trade-offs.

Solar work is notifiable. A competent person scheme means your installation team notifies, not you.

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

PVGIS v5.2 for each town centroid, identical assumptions throughout. A few kWh either way is weather-year noise; a spread beyond about 30 kWh per kWp is real geography.
