How Stratford-upon-Avon compares
Among the places we publish figures for, Stratford-upon-Avon is one of 19 Warwickshire towns we track, and it ranks 1st of 19 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 29,188 residents, and its roofs see 2.78 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,455 kWh of generation, of which around 5,519 kWh is exported at 12p for £662 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, opened on Stratford-upon-Avon'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.
Any planning application in Stratford-upon-Avon sits with Stratford-on-Avon, and its official House of Commons Library settlement class is 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.

The network operator for Stratford-upon-Avon
Stratford-upon-Avon sits in National Grid Electricity Distribution's West Midlands licence area, so NGED is the network operator (DNO) any solar panels or battery here are registered with.
G98 is the simple route. If the inverter, plus any battery, stays at or under 3.68kW per phase, NGED only has to be told within 28 days after the system is commissioned.
Larger systems go through G99 instead, applied for before installation. On timing: NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late.

Heat pumps and EV charging in Stratford-upon-Avon
A heat pump in Stratford-upon-Avon
In December, the darkest month here, 12 panels in Stratford-upon-Avon make about 230 kWh. That is when a heat pump runs hardest, so its running cost in Stratford-upon-Avon comes down to the tariff and the flow temperature rather than the roof.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme, open in England and Wales, takes £7,500 off an air source or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 off an air-to-air unit. Homes on oil or LPG with no mains gas get £1,500 more until March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Stratford-upon-Avon
Summer is where a car earns its place. In July, 12 panels in Stratford-upon-Avon make about 800 kWh, against roughly 70 kWh a typical home uses in daylight that month on our calculator's typical-use settings, so there is surplus a smart charger can put into the car instead of exporting it.
Renters and flat owners with private off-street parking can get 75% off a chargepoint and its installation, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above adds a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Stratford-upon-Avon solar questions
How much electricity do solar panels make in Stratford-upon-Avon?
About 6,460 kWh a year from 12 panels (6.36 kWp), on PVGIS satellite data for Stratford-upon-Avon: 1,015 kWh per kWp, or 2.78 peak sun hours a day on average. July is the strongest month, at about 800 kWh.
What does a typical solar system cost in Stratford-upon-Avon?
Solar is priced at £1,000 per kWp installed wherever you live, so a 12-panel, 6.36 kWp system costs £6,360 in Stratford-upon-Avon, exactly as it would anywhere else, before any battery. Location changes what the system makes, not what it costs: here that is about 6,460 kWh a year. The final figure comes from your roof on the design call.
Which DNO covers Stratford-upon-Avon, and what does it need from me?
National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) covers Stratford-upon-Avon. A home system of up to 3.68kW per phase is notified to NGED within 28 days of commissioning under G98, and nothing waits on approval. Larger outputs need a G99 application before work starts. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late.
What happens to the solar I do not use in Stratford-upon-Avon?
Around £662 a year at 12p per kWh, for the roughly 5,519 kWh a 12-panel system in Stratford-upon-Avon exports with typical use. Rates vary by supplier and some need their own tariff; the export rates table is dated and sourced.
How much solar does Stratford-upon-Avon get in December?
December is the low point: about 230 kWh from a 12-panel system in Stratford-upon-Avon, on PVGIS data, rising to 800 kWh in July. From November to February the same system makes about 1,100 kWh in total, which is why a battery charged off-peak does more of the work in winter.
How Stratford-upon-Avon compares with its neighbours
Same satellite dataset, same assumptions, so the differences are real geography rather than modelling noise.
| Town | kWh per kWp a year | vs Stratford-upon-Avon |
|---|---|---|
| Stratford-upon-Avon | 1,015 | this town |
| Wellesbourne | 1,003 | −12 kWh |
| Warwick | 1,000 | −15 kWh |
| Whitnash | 999 | −16 kWh |
| Royal Leamington Spa | 1,000 | −15 kWh |
| Redditch | 996 | −19 kWh |
| Kenilworth | 998 | −17 kWh |
Each row is a PVGIS v5.2 run at that town's centre with the same settings. Treat gaps of a few kWh as noise and gaps over about 30 kWh per kWp as real differences in sunshine.
