How Woking compares
Woking is one of 47 Surrey towns we track, and it ranks joint 33rd of 47 for solar yield. The House of Commons Library settlement data classes it as a large town of 77,056 people. At 1,019 kWh per kWp a year, a typical 12 panel system here pays for itself in around 7.0 years on the 12p scenario: £912 of year one benefit against £6,360 of installed hardware, £247 of that benefit from cutting 26.32p imports with your own generation.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, defaulted to Woking's own yield, and at Woking's 1,019 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.
Planning applications here go through Woking; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Woking as a large 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 Woking generates around 6,481 kWh a year, worth around £912 in year one on the 12p export scenario.
Generation is modelled from PVGIS satellite data for Woking's own coordinates (51.3137, -0.57611), 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 Woking
What could a roof in Woking generate?

What does a typical solar system cost in Woking?
A typical 12 panel, 6.36 kWp system in Woking costs around £6,360 installed, at £1,000 per kWp before any battery.
Would a system in Woking 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 Woking before anything is booked; our G98 vs G99 guide explains the difference in full.
What could I earn from exporting in Woking?

Read the guide →Does a standalone battery actually pay back?
No panels means one job: buy cheap, use later. The tariff decides whether it pays.
Read the guide →Charging an EV from your own solar
Every surplus kWh is 3.6 to 5 miles. Whether that beats a 7p overnight rate is arithmetic.
Read the guide →Do you need to replace your radiators for a heat pump?
Some change, most do not. The room by room arithmetic that decides which.
Read the guide →Why the best export rates always carry conditions
The top export rates are acquisition offers. Here is how to price the condition.
Read the guide →What MCS certification actually is, and why your export payments depend on it
The badge that decides whether your solar earns export payments. It cannot be added later.

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

PVGIS v5.2 for each town centroid, identical assumptions throughout. A few kWh either way is weather-year noise; a spread beyond about 30 kWh per kWp is real geography.
