How Weybridge compares

Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Weybridge. It is one of 47 Surrey towns we track, and it ranks joint 17th of 47 for solar yield, a town of 16,382 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,025 kWh per kWp a year, 2.81 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £917 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £670 from export at 12p.

These are starting numbers, not a quote. The calculator below opens on Weybridge's own PVGIS figure; change the panels, the battery or the export rate and it reruns. The design call replaces every assumption with your roof and your bills.

Elmbridge is the planning authority covering Weybridge, which the House of Commons Library classes as a small town.

Local grid

Who runs the grid in Weybridge

Weybridge sits in UK Power Networks' South East England licence area, so UK Power Networks is the network operator (DNO) any solar panels or battery here are registered with.

Below 3.68kW per phase of inverter and battery output, the G98 route applies: the installation is notified to UK Power Networks within 28 days of commissioning, with no prior approval.

A bigger inverter or battery output needs a G99 application in advance. 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.

Adding a heat pump or an EV charger in Weybridge

A heat pump in Weybridge

A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Weybridge make about 1,100 kWh, against 3,090 kWh from May to August, so winter heating runs mostly on grid electricity and the tariff matters more than the roof.

Grant support in England comes from the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: £7,500 for an air source or ground source heat pump, £2,500 for air-to-air, and an extra £1,500 until March 2027 where the home is heated by oil or LPG off the gas grid (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).

How heat pumps work

Charging an EV in Weybridge

A 12-panel roof in Weybridge makes about 810 kWh in July. A typical home uses around 70 kWh of that in daylight (the calculator's typical-use settings), which leaves most of the month's output for an EV or for export.

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.

FAQs

Weybridge solar questions

What does a solar panel system produce in Weybridge?

Each kWp of panels in Weybridge makes 1,025 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,520 kWh, from about 230 kWh in December up to 810 kWh in July.

How much are solar panels in Weybridge?

The price does not move by postcode. At £1,000 per kWp installed, 12 panels (6.36 kWp) come to £6,360 in Weybridge before a battery. What Weybridge changes is the return, about 6,520 kWh a year from that system, and your design call prices your actual roof.

Would a system in Weybridge need approval from the network operator?

Weybridge is on UK Power Networks' network (South East England licence area). Systems up to 3.68kW per phase of inverter output follow G98: UK Power Networks is notified within 28 days of commissioning, with no approval needed first. Anything larger needs a G99 application before installation. 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. Our G98 vs G99 guide explains both routes.

How much can I earn from exporting solar in Weybridge?

With typical use and no battery, a 12-panel system in Weybridge exports about 5,582 kWh a year. At 12p per kWh that is roughly £670; a supplier paying more, or a battery that keeps more for the evening, changes the figure. See the export rates table.

Is solar worth it in Weybridge in winter?

It works, but the year is lopsided. 68% of a Weybridge roof's output lands between April and September; the four months from November to February give about 1,100 kWh on a 12-panel system. Payback is worked out on the whole year, not the winter.
