What a solar system actually generates in Plymouth

A typical 4kWp roof array in Plymouth, at the optimal angle, is modelled to produce about 4,399 kWh a year — roughly 1100 kWh for every kWp installed. That puts Plymouth among the stronger locations in the UK, which runs from about 853 to 1163 kWh per kWp.

The modelled optimal tilt here is around 39°. Most UK pitched roofs sit between 30° and 45°, so a south-facing roof in Plymouth is usually close to ideal without any special mounting. A shallower or east–west roof still works, it simply generates less, which is one of the things worth having each installer quantify in their quote.

Modelled yield: PVGIS v5.2, European Commission Joint Research Centre — 4kWp crystalline silicon, 14% system losses, optimal angles, at Plymouth. Actual output depends on your roof, shading and the equipment installed.

Is my Plymouth home suitable for solar?

Most homes are. Roof direction, pitch, shading and available space all affect output — a free local survey will confirm what is possible for your property.

Do solar panels work well this far north?

Yes — solar panels generate from daylight rather than heat, so they work across the whole UK. Output varies by location and roof orientation, which a local installer will factor into your quote.
