Solar panels for Warwick homes
A 4.4kW solar system in Warwick should produce roughly 4,400 kWh a year. That figure comes from PVGIS, the European Commission's solar model, run for Warwick itself rather than a national average, at 1,000 kWh per kW of panels on a south facing 35 degree roof.
Output follows the seasons. In Warwick the same 4.4kW system makes around 529 kWh in June and 154 kWh in December, and July is usually the strongest month. About 68% 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 Warwick
We design around your roof, not a brochure. In Warwick, moving the same ten panels from a south to an east and west roof drops yearly output to around 3,608 kWh. That is still well worth doing, and the morning and evening split often suits a household that is out during the day.
What you could save
At the current price cap of 26.32p per kWh and 12p for exported power, we estimate a Warwick home saves about £671 a year with panels alone, or about £814 with a 5.8kWh battery that stores the afternoon surplus for the evening. On our fixed prices that is a simple payback of around 9.7 years for panels and 11.4 years with a battery, before any energy price rises or cheaper overnight battery charging.
| System in Warwick | Makes a year | Est. saving | Fixed price | Payback |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4.4kW solar | 4,400 kWh | £671 | £6,495 | 9.7 years |
| 4.4kW solar + 5.8kWh battery | 4,400 kWh | £814 | £9,295 | 11.4 years |
| 6.2kW solar + 10kWh battery | 6,200 kWh | £1,030 | £12,495 | 12.1 years |

Planning permission in Warwick
Most homes in Warwick 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 Warwick Council; if your home is listed or in a conservation area we check with them before quoting.
Your local install team
Warwick is covered by our West Midlands team, the same engineers who work in Stratford-upon-Avon, Coventry, Solihull. You get a surveyor within about a week and the fitting team you meet on install day works for us, not an agency.
