How Hedge End compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Hedge End. It is one of 45 Hampshire towns we track, and it ranks 28th of 45 for solar yield, a town of 23,534 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,084 kWh per kWp a year, 2.97 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £962 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £715 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Hedge End's own yield, and at Hedge End's 1,084 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.
