How Queensbury compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Queensbury. It is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 105th of 122 for solar yield, a town of 9,686 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 924 kWh per kWp a year, 2.53 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £840 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £593 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Queensbury's own yield, and at Queensbury's 924 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 Bradford; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Queensbury 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.
