How Littlehampton compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Littlehampton. It is one of 33 Sussex towns we track, and it ranks joint 19th of 33 for solar yield, a town of 19,216 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,137 kWh per kWp a year, 3.12 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £1,002 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £755 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Littlehampton's own yield, and at Littlehampton's 1,137 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.
Planning applications here go through Arun; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Littlehampton 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 Littlehampton generates around 7,231 kWh a year, worth around £1,002 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Littlehampton's own coordinates (50.81235, -0.53324), 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.

Common questions about solar in Littlehampton
What could a roof in Littlehampton generate?

What does a typical solar system cost in Littlehampton?

Would a system in Littlehampton need a G99 application?
Most home solar and battery systems qualify for the simpler G98 notification, made to the network operator (DNO) after installation rather than before. A minority, usually larger systems, need the fuller G99 process instead. Your design call checks which applies in Littlehampton before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.

Do solar panels need direct sunlight? Not really, and here is why
No. Solar cells respond to light hitting them, not to a clear line of sight to the sun.

Usable capacity, kW output, round trip losses and chemistry, in plain terms.
Read the guide →Charging an EV from your own solar
Every surplus kWh is 3.6 to 5 miles. Whether that beats a 7p overnight rate is arithmetic.

The gate on the £7,500 grant, the design standard behind your running costs, and the noise sign-off.
Read the guide →Why tariff choice moves payback more than kit choice
Identical kit, five times the export income. The tariff decision worked through with August 2026 rates.
Read the guide →G98 or G99: which one applies, what the application involves, and how long it takes
The G98 line sits at 3.68kW per phase. Above it, your network operator has to say yes first.

Same satellite dataset, same assumptions, so the differences are real geography rather than modelling noise.
