How St Neots compares
Among the places we publish figures for, St Neots is one of 5 Huntingdonshire towns we track, and it ranks 5th of 5 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 34,758 residents, and its roofs see 2.81 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,525 kWh of generation, of which around 5,589 kWh is exported at 12p for £671 a year, with £247 saved on electricity you would otherwise buy at 26.32p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to St Neots's own yield, and at St Neots's 1,026 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 Huntingdonshire; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes St Neots as a medium 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.

Three phase buys 22kW charging. Most cars cannot use it, and load balancing usually solves the real problem.
