Solar in this area

What solar could generate in this area.

We looked at the metered output of 14,879 real UK solar installations to see how much a roof could make. In the area this installer covers, we estimate the following:

≈1,064 kWh per kWp a year

For CM2 (Chelmsford) that is roughly 10% above the UK average: a 4 kWp system, about ten panels, would make roughly 4,300 kWh a year on a well-placed roof. Across the Chelmsford (CM) postcode area, the middle half of 75 metered systems made 734–883 kWh per kWp in 2024.

Check your roof's potential today with our roof check. This is an estimate: the size and suitability of your roof, the way it faces and other factors all play into what you could generate, so an in-person roof survey is always recommended.
