How Ivybridge compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Ivybridge. It is one of 23 Devon towns we track, and it ranks 1st of 23 for solar yield, a town of 12,674 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,109 kWh per kWp a year, 3.04 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £981 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £734 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Ivybridge's own yield, and at Ivybridge's 1,109 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.
Any planning application in Ivybridge sits with South Hams, and its official House of Commons Library settlement class is 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.
