Real satellite data for Wick, real installed pricing, and the same honest model we run for every place we cover.
How Wick compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Wick. It is one of 33 Sussex towns we track, and it ranks joint 19th of 33 for solar yield, a town of 10,967 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 1,137 kWh per kWp a year, 3.12 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £1,002 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £755 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Wick's own yield, and at Wick's 1,137 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.
Wick sits within Arun, its local planning authority, and the House of Commons Library classes it 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 Wick generates around 7,231 kWh a year, worth around £1,002 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Wick's own coordinates (50.82159, -0.54815), 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.

Common questions about solar in Wick
What could a roof in Wick generate?
PVGIS puts a roof in Wick at 1,137 kWh per kWp a year, 3.12 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons.
What does a typical solar system cost in Wick?
A typical 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Wick costs around £6,360 installed, at £1,000 per kWp before any battery.
Would a system in Wick need a G99 application?
Most home solar and battery systems qualify for the simpler G98 notification, made to the network operator (DNO) after installation rather than before. A minority, usually larger systems, need the fuller G99 process instead. Your design call checks which applies in Wick before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.
What could I earn from exporting in Wick?
On the 12p export scenario, that 12 panel system sends about 6,295 kWh a year to the grid, worth around £755. The tariff guide compares the export rates that could apply to your setup.

Same satellite dataset, same assumptions, so the differences are real geography rather than modelling noise.
