How Pershore compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Pershore. It is one of 13 Worcestershire towns we track, and it ranks 1st of 13 for solar yield, a town of 8,632 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,002 kWh per kWp a year, 2.75 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £899 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £652 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, opened on Pershore's own yield, and 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.
Wychavon is the planning authority covering Pershore, which the House of Commons Library classes 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.

Who runs the grid in Pershore
Pershore is served by National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED): the town's centre falls inside its West Midlands licence area on NESO's boundary map.
What decides the paperwork is the inverter and battery output, not the number of panels. Up to 3.68kW per phase, a system follows G98: NGED is notified within 28 days of commissioning and nothing has to be approved first.
A bigger inverter or battery output needs a G99 application in advance. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late.

Heat pumps and EV charging in Pershore
A heat pump in Pershore
A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Pershore make about 1,080 kWh, against 3,020 kWh from May to August, so winter heating runs mostly on grid electricity and the tariff matters more 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 Pershore
A 12-panel roof in Pershore makes about 780 kWh in May. A typical home uses around 70 kWh of that in daylight (the calculator's typical-use settings), which leaves most of the month's output for an EV or for export.
The calculator above includes a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed. Renters and flat owners with off-street parking can claim 75% of a chargepoint's cost, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).

Pershore solar questions
What does a solar panel system produce in Pershore?
Each kWp of panels in Pershore makes 1,002 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,370 kWh, from about 220 kWh in December up to 780 kWh in May.
What would 12 solar panels cost in Pershore?
£6,360 for 12 panels (6.36 kWp), the same as in every other place we cover, because solar is priced at £1,000 per kWp installed rather than by area. A battery adds its own installed price on top. Where Pershore differs is output: about 6,370 kWh a year from that system.
Would a system in Pershore need approval from the network operator?
Pershore is on National Grid Electricity Distribution's network (West Midlands licence area). Systems up to 3.68kW per phase of inverter output follow G98: NGED is notified within 28 days of commissioning, with no approval needed first. Anything larger needs a G99 application before installation. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late. Our G98 vs G99 guide explains both routes.
How much would export pay on a system in Pershore?
It is exported. With typical use and no battery, about 5,436 kWh of the 6,370 kWh a 12-panel system makes in Pershore goes to the grid, around £652 a year at 12p. A battery keeps more of it for the evening; the export rates table shows what suppliers pay.
Is solar worth it in Pershore in winter?
It works, but the year is lopsided. 68% of a Pershore roof's output lands between April and September; the four months from November to February give about 1,080 kWh on a 12-panel system. Payback is worked out on the whole year, not the winter.
How Pershore compares with its neighbours
How the towns nearest Pershore compare on the same PVGIS settings, closest first.
| Town | kWh per kWp a year | vs Pershore |
|---|---|---|
| Pershore | 1,002 | this town |
| Evesham | 991 | −11 kWh |
| Worcester | 1,000 | −2 kWh |
| Tewkesbury | 994 | −8 kWh |
| Great Malvern | 996 | −6 kWh |
| Droitwich Spa | 993 | −9 kWh |
| Bishop's Cleeve | 987 | −15 kWh |
Each row is a PVGIS v5.2 run at that town's centre with the same settings. Treat gaps of a few kWh as noise and gaps over about 30 kWh per kWp as real differences in sunshine.
