How Storrington compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Storrington. It is one of 33 Sussex towns we track, and it ranks 22nd of 33 for solar yield, a town of 8,512 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,126 kWh per kWp a year, 3.08 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £994 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £747 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, opened on Storrington's own yield, and 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 Horsham; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Storrington 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.

Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Storrington's own coordinates (50.92054, -0.44177), using the same 26.32p/kWh import value and £1,000 per kWp installed pricing as every Clearline estimate; the methodology is on our help page.
UK Power Networks and your Storrington connection
UK Power Networks owns and runs the local electricity network in Storrington, as part of its South East England licence area.
What decides the paperwork is the inverter and battery output, not the number of panels. Up to 3.68kW per phase, a system follows G98: UK Power Networks is notified within 28 days of commissioning and nothing has to be approved first.
Above that, G99 means applying before the work is booked. Ofgem's guaranteed standard for a low voltage generation connection quotation is 45 working days, with £80 paid for each working day late, and it binds UK Power Networks as it does every network operator.

Heat pumps and EV charging in Storrington
A heat pump in Storrington
Heating demand peaks when solar is weakest. In Storrington, a 12-panel system makes about 260 kWh in December and 270 kWh in January, a fraction of its 880 kWh in July, which is why a heat pump here is costed on its tariff first.
In England, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air source or ground source heat pump and £2,500 towards an air-to-air one, with £1,500 more until March 2027 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Storrington
Storrington's July output, about 880 kWh from 12 panels, is several times the 70 kWh or so a typical home uses in daylight that month on our calculator's settings. Daytime charging turns that surplus into miles.
If you rent, or own a flat, and have private off-street parking, the government chargepoint grant covers 75% of the cost, capped at £500 a socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above prices a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Solar in Storrington: your questions answered
How much electricity do solar panels make in Storrington?
About 7,160 kWh a year from 12 panels (6.36 kWp), on PVGIS satellite data for Storrington: 1,126 kWh per kWp, or 3.08 peak sun hours a day on average. July is the strongest month, at about 880 kWh.
Is solar more expensive in Storrington?
Prices on this site are the same everywhere: £1,000 per kWp installed, which puts a 12-panel system at £6,360 in Storrington, and a Duracell Dura16 installed with solar at £4,450 on top. The local part is generation, about 7,160 kWh a year here, which is what drives payback.
Which DNO covers Storrington, and what does it need from me?
UK Power Networks covers Storrington. A home system of up to 3.68kW per phase is notified to UK Power Networks within 28 days of commissioning under G98, and nothing waits on approval. Larger outputs need a G99 application before work starts. Ofgem's guaranteed standard for a low voltage generation connection quotation is 45 working days, with £80 paid for each working day late, and it binds UK Power Networks as it does every network operator.
What could I earn from exporting in Storrington?
On the 12p export scenario, a 12-panel system in Storrington sends about 6,225 kWh a year to the grid, worth around £747. The export rates table compares what each supplier pays.
How much solar does Storrington get in December?
December is the low point: about 260 kWh from a 12-panel system in Storrington, on PVGIS data, rising to 880 kWh in July. From November to February the same system makes about 1,220 kWh in total, which is why a battery charged off-peak does more of the work in winter.
