How Hawarden compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Hawarden. It is one of 8 Flintshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 3rd of 8 for solar yield, a town of 12,532 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 962 kWh per kWp a year, 2.64 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £869 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £622 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Hawarden's own yield, and at Hawarden's 962 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.
Hawarden sits within Flintshire, 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.
