How Heckmondwike compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Heckmondwike. It is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 88th of 122 for solar yield, a town of 13,617 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 940 kWh per kWp a year, 2.58 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £852 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £605 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Heckmondwike's own yield, and at Heckmondwike's 940 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.

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.
