Why Sussex Is Made for Solar

Sussex is one of the sunniest places in the UK averaging 1800 hours of sunshine a year, with south facing coastal towns enjoying up to 1,920 hours of sunshine a year, with over 400 hours more than the national average packback rates are faster than almost anywhere else in the country.

Over 45,000 Sussex households have already made the switch. For a typical home, that can mean hundreds of pounds off your electricity bill every year and a system that pays for itself years sooner than the UK average.

For most Sussex homes, connecting solar to the grid is simple. Standard residential systems are automatically approved, meaning no lengthy waiting periods or complex applications, with the switch happening in a matter of weeks, not months.
