What the data says about Somerset
Modelled yield is not flat across Somerset. Weston-super-Mare comes out at 934 kWh per kWp a year against 894 at Frome, a spread of 40 kWh per kWp. On a 500 kWp array that difference is about 20,000 kWh a year, which is worth checking before you accept a generic saving figure.
The larger roofs in Somerset follow the freight routes. Across the towns we cover that means M5 J21, A370, A371, M5 J25, M5 J26 and A38, which is where single-let distribution stock concentrates.
The government's planning database records 223 solar schemes in Somerset totalling 1574 MW, of which 79 are already operational and 16 of the schemes in our covered postcode districts are roof mounted. Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Q1 2026.
Connections across the county run through National Grid Electricity Distribution. 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.
- Bath 904 kWh/kWp
- Weston-super-Mare 934 kWh/kWp
- Taunton 911 kWh/kWp
- Yeovil 923 kWh/kWp
- Bridgwater 931 kWh/kWp
- Frome 894 kWh/kWp
- Wells 899 kWh/kWp
- Glastonbury 913 kWh/kWp
