How King's Lynn compares
Among the places we publish figures for, King's Lynn is one of 16 Norfolk towns we track, and it ranks 11th of 16 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 48,195 residents, and its roofs see 2.81 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,532 kWh of generation, of which around 5,595 kWh is exported at 12p for £671 a year, with £247 saved on electricity you would otherwise buy at 26.32p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to King's Lynn's own yield, and at King's Lynn's 1,027 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.

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.
