How Kenilworth compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Kenilworth. It is one of 19 Warwickshire towns we track, and it ranks 8th of 19 for solar yield, a town of 22,463 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 998 kWh per kWp a year, 2.73 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £896 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £649 from export at 12p.
These are starting numbers, not a quote. The calculator below opens on Kenilworth's own PVGIS figure; change the panels, the battery or the export rate and it reruns. The design call replaces every assumption with your roof and your bills.
Any planning application in Kenilworth sits with Warwick, 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.

Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Kenilworth's own coordinates (52.3453, -1.57211), using the same 26.32p/kWh import value and £1,000 per kWp installed pricing as every Clearline estimate; the methodology is on our help page.
NGED and your Kenilworth connection
On NESO's licence-area map, Kenilworth is in East Midlands, which National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) operates. That makes NGED the network operator for any system fitted here.
Below 3.68kW per phase of inverter and battery output, the G98 route applies: the installation is notified to NGED within 28 days of commissioning, with no prior approval.
Above that, G99 means applying before the work is booked. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late.

Adding a heat pump or an EV charger in Kenilworth
A heat pump in Kenilworth
In December, the darkest month here, 12 panels in Kenilworth make about 220 kWh. That is when a heat pump runs hardest, so its running cost in Kenilworth comes down to the tariff and the flow temperature rather than the roof.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme, open in England and Wales, takes £7,500 off an air source or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 off an air-to-air unit. Homes on oil or LPG with no mains gas get £1,500 more until March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Kenilworth
Kenilworth's July output, about 780 kWh from 12 panels, is several times the 70 kWh or so a typical home uses in daylight that month on our calculator's settings. Daytime charging turns that surplus into miles.
Renters and flat owners with private off-street parking can get 75% off a chargepoint and its installation, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above adds a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Kenilworth solar questions
How much electricity do solar panels make in Kenilworth?
About 6,350 kWh a year from 12 panels (6.36 kWp), on PVGIS satellite data for Kenilworth: 998 kWh per kWp, or 2.73 peak sun hours a day on average. July is the strongest month, at about 780 kWh.
Is solar more expensive in Kenilworth?
Prices on this site are the same everywhere: £1,000 per kWp installed, which puts a 12-panel system at £6,360 in Kenilworth, and a Duracell Dura16 installed with solar at £4,450 on top. The local part is generation, about 6,350 kWh a year here, which is what drives payback.
Which DNO covers Kenilworth, and what does it need from me?
National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) covers Kenilworth. A home system of up to 3.68kW per phase is notified to NGED within 28 days of commissioning under G98, and nothing waits on approval. Larger outputs need a G99 application before work starts. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late.
What could I earn from exporting in Kenilworth?
On the 12p export scenario, a 12-panel system in Kenilworth sends about 5,411 kWh a year to the grid, worth around £649. The export rates table compares what each supplier pays.
How much solar does Kenilworth get in December?
December is the low point: about 220 kWh from a 12-panel system in Kenilworth, on PVGIS data, rising to 780 kWh in July. From November to February the same system makes about 1,090 kWh in total, which is why a battery charged off-peak does more of the work in winter.
How Kenilworth compares with its neighbours
The six closest towns we publish, run through the identical PVGIS query as Kenilworth.
| Town | kWh per kWp a year | vs Kenilworth |
|---|---|---|
| Kenilworth | 998 | this town |
| Royal Leamington Spa | 1,000 | +2 kWh |
| Warwick | 1,000 | +2 kWh |
| Coventry | 985 | −13 kWh |
| Whitnash | 999 | +1 kWh |
| Knowle and Dorridge | 991 | −7 kWh |
| Bedworth | 983 | −15 kWh |
Same PVGIS v5.2 query for every town. Small differences are within year-to-year weather; more than about 30 kWh per kWp apart is geography.
