What could you actually save?

A range-based savings estimator — honest about how wide the range really is.

The calculator below gives a range, not a single number, on purpose. Solar economics depend on so many variables — weather, tariff, household behaviour, export rate — that any single-figure estimate is misleading. We err toward honesty even if it makes the answer less satisfying.

Before the numbers, here's the first big variable: where you live. UK yield varies by roughly 40% between the sunniest South West and the least-sunny far North of Scotland.

Annual generation per kWp installed, south-facing 30-40° roof. Yields are MCS standard-assessment regional averages and rounded to the nearest 50 kWh.

Start with the six required inputs. If you want a tighter range, expand the optional detail section — it asks four more questions that meaningfully sharpen the estimate.
