Against Great Britain as a whole: Warwick makes 1,000 kWh per kWp a year, and the mean of our 85 county PVGIS estimates (our GB average) is 925, so Warwick is 8% above it.

How Warwick compares

Among the places we publish figures for, Warwick is one of 19 Warwickshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 4th of 19 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 39,772 residents, and its roofs see 2.74 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,360 kWh of generation, of which around 5,423 kWh is exported at 12p for £651 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 Warwick'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 in Warwick go to its own council, and the House of Commons Library classes it as a medium town.

Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Warwick's own coordinates (52.27883, -1.57374), 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.

Local grid

Connecting solar to the Warwick network

On NESO's licence-area map, Warwick is in East Midlands, which National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) operates. That makes NGED the network operator for any system fitted here.

Most home systems stay within 3.68kW per phase of inverter output, which puts them on G98, a notification to NGED within 28 days of switch-on. Panel count does not decide it; the inverter and any battery do.

Anything bigger is a G99 case and is applied for first. 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 Warwick

A heat pump in Warwick

Solar and a heat pump pull in opposite directions through the year: Warwick's roofs make 1,080 kWh from November to February on a 12-panel system, and 3,010 kWh from May to August. The heating season leans on the grid, so off-peak rates do the heavy lifting.

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 Warwick

From April to September, 68% of a Warwick roof's yearly output arrives, peaking at about 780 kWh in July on 12 panels. A car parked at home in daylight can soak up what the house, at around 70 kWh of daytime use that month, cannot.

The calculator above includes a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed. Renters and flat owners with off-street parking can claim 75% of a chargepoint's cost, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).

FAQs

Warwick solar questions

What could a roof in Warwick generate?

PVGIS puts a roof in Warwick at 1,000 kWh per kWp a year, 2.74 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons. A 12-panel, 6.36 kWp system makes about 6,360 kWh a year, most of it between April and September.

How much are solar panels in Warwick?

The price does not move by postcode. At £1,000 per kWp installed, 12 panels (6.36 kWp) come to £6,360 in Warwick before a battery. What Warwick changes is the return, about 6,360 kWh a year from that system, and your design call prices your actual roof.

Do I need permission from the DNO for solar in Warwick?

Usually not in advance. NGED, the network operator for Warwick, only needs a G98 notification within 28 days of commissioning for systems up to 3.68kW per phase. Bigger inverter or battery outputs need G99 approval first. NGED's guaranteed standards give 45 working days for a low voltage generation quotation, with £80 paid for each working day late. "See our DNO explainer.

How much can I earn from exporting solar in Warwick?

With typical use and no battery, a 12-panel system in Warwick exports about 5,423 kWh a year. At 12p per kWh that is roughly £651; a supplier paying more, or a battery that keeps more for the evening, changes the figure. See the export rates table.

Do solar panels work in winter in Warwick?

Yes, at a lower level. PVGIS gives Warwick 35 kWh per kWp in December and 37.2 in January, so a 12-panel system makes about 220 kWh and 240 kWh in those months, against 780 kWh in July. Winter output mostly covers daytime use rather than exporting.

How Warwick compares with its neighbours
