How Wythenshawe compares
Wythenshawe is one of 45 Cheshire towns we track, and it ranks 27th of 45 for solar yield. The House of Commons Library settlement data classes it as a large town of 93,433 people. At 912 kWh per kWp a year, a typical 12 panel system here pays for itself in around 7.7 years on the 12p scenario: £830 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 Wythenshawe's own yield, and at Wythenshawe's 912 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 Manchester; nationally, the House of Commons Library classes Wythenshawe 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.
