What the data says about Northumberland
Modelled yield is not flat across Northumberland. Blyth comes out at 848 kWh per kWp a year against 803 at Hexham, a spread of 45 kWh per kWp. On a 500 kWp array that difference is about 22,500 kWh a year, which is worth checking before you accept a generic saving figure.
The larger roofs in Northumberland follow the freight routes. Across the towns we cover that means A189, A193, A1, A19, A192 and A197, which is where single-let distribution stock concentrates.
The government's planning database records 38 solar schemes in Northumberland totalling 276 MW, of which 2 are already operational and 13 of the schemes in our covered postcode districts are roof mounted. Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Q1 2026.
Connections across the county run through Northern Powergrid. Anything above 3.68 kW per phase needs a G99 application, and the export limit they offer shapes the design, so we ask the question before the array is sized rather than after.
- Blyth 848 kWh/kWp

- Morpeth 824 kWh/kWp
- Berwick-upon-Tweed 827 kWh/kWp
