How Romiley compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Romiley. It is one of 45 Cheshire towns we track, and it ranks 38th of 45 for solar yield, a town of 10,991 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 873 kWh per kWp a year, 2.39 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £801 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £554 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Romiley's own yield, and at Romiley's 873 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.
Any planning application in Romiley sits with Stockport, 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.

A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Romiley generates around 5,552 kWh a year, worth around £800 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Romiley's own coordinates (53.41405, -2.08906), 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 Romiley
What could a roof in Romiley generate?
PVGIS puts a roof in Romiley at 873 kWh per kWp a year, 2.39 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons.
What does a typical solar system cost in Romiley?
A typical 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Romiley costs around £6,360 installed, at £1,000 per kWp before any battery.
Would a system in Romiley 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 Romiley 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.

Whole home backup sounds obvious until you do the runtime maths. Here is how to choose the right tier.

Read the guide →The price cap explained, and what it does to solar payback
The cap limits unit rates, not bills. That changes what solar payback means.
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.
