How Hersham compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Hersham. It is one of 47 Surrey towns we track, and it ranks joint 17th of 47 for solar yield, a town of 13,306 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,025 kWh per kWp a year, 2.81 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £917 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £670 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Hersham's own yield, and at Hersham's 1,025 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.
Hersham sits within Elmbridge, 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 Hersham generates around 6,519 kWh a year, worth around £916 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Hersham's own coordinates (51.36686, -0.40913), 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.
