Solar panels for Enfield homes
If you live in Enfield, each kW of south facing solar panels will generate about 1,020 kWh a year, based on PVGIS modelling for the town. For the ten panel system most of our customers choose, that is 4,488 kWh, enough to cover a large share of a typical home's 2,500 kWh of yearly use.
Output follows the seasons. In Enfield the same 4.4kW system makes around 537 kWh in June and 164 kWh in December, and July is usually the strongest month. About 67% of the year's power arrives between April and September, which is why a battery matters more here in summer evenings than in the depths of winter.
Which roofs work best in Enfield
Roof direction changes the numbers more than the town does. An east and west split roof in Enfield would make about 3,680 kWh from the same ten panels, roughly 18% less than south, but it spreads generation across the morning and evening when most families are home. North facing roofs are rarely worth covering at normal pitches.
What you could save
At the current price cap of 26.32p per kWh and 12p for exported power, we estimate a Enfield home saves about £682 a year with panels alone, or about £825 with a 5.8kWh battery that stores the afternoon surplus for the evening. On our fixed prices that is a simple payback of around 9.5 years for panels and 11.3 years with a battery, before any energy price rises or cheaper overnight battery charging.
| System in Enfield | Makes a year | Est. saving | Fixed price | Payback |

| 4.4kW solar | 4,488 kWh | £682 | £6,495 | 9.5 years |
| 4.4kW solar + 5.8kWh battery | 4,488 kWh | £825 | £9,295 | 11.3 years |
| 6.2kW solar + 10kWh battery | 6,324 kWh | £1,045 | £12,495 | 12.0 years |
Solar panel prices in Enfield
Government MCS data for 2025/26 puts the average cost of a 4 to 10kW system in London at £1,759 per kW. Our 4.4kW package works out at £1,476 per kW, fully installed with scaffolding and 0% VAT, and the price on your quote is fixed once we have surveyed the roof.
Planning permission in Enfield
Most homes in Enfield do not need planning permission for roof panels. Under permitted development rules they can be fitted as long as they sit no more than 200mm proud of the roof and stay below the ridge. The exceptions are listed buildings and, in conservation areas, walls facing a road. The local planning authority is Enfield Council; if your home is listed or in a conservation area we check with them before quoting.
