How Stakeford compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Stakeford. It is one of 18 Northumberland towns we track, and it ranks joint 2nd of 18 for solar yield, a town of 8,417 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 976 kWh per kWp a year, 2.67 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £879 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £632 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Stakeford's own yield, and at Stakeford's 976 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 Stakeford sits with Northumberland, 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.
