How Verwood compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Verwood. It is one of 15 Dorset towns we track, and it ranks 12th of 15 for solar yield, a town of 13,926 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,082 kWh per kWp a year, 2.96 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £960 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £713 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Verwood's own yield, and at Verwood's 1,082 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.
Dorset is the planning authority covering Verwood, which the House of Commons Library classes 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.

A 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Verwood generates around 6,882 kWh a year, worth around £960 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Verwood's own coordinates (50.87609, -1.87255), using the same 26.32p/kWh import value and £1,000 per kWp installed pricing as every Clearline estimate, with the full methodology, sourcing and assumptions set out on our help page.

What does a typical solar system cost in Verwood?

Your design call checks which applies in Verwood before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.
