How High Wycombe compares
High Wycombe is one of 19 Buckinghamshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 8th of 19 for solar yield. The House of Commons Library settlement data classes it as a large town of 89,329 people. At 1,012 kWh per kWp a year, a typical 12 panel system here pays for itself in around 7.0 years on the 12p scenario: £906 of year one benefit against £6,360 of installed hardware, £247 of that benefit from cutting 26.32p imports with your own generation.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to High Wycombe's own yield, and at High Wycombe's 1,012 kWh per kWp it prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery.
