How Seaton Delaval compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Seaton Delaval. It is one of 18 Northumberland towns we track, and it ranks 8th of 18 for solar yield, a town of 8,106 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 967 kWh per kWp a year, 2.65 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £873 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £626 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Seaton Delaval's own yield, and at Seaton Delaval's 967 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.
Seaton Delaval sits within Northumberland, its local planning authority, and the House of Commons Library classes it 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.
