The sunniest place in the UK for solar panels

Bournemouth gets more sunshine than anywhere else in the UK. A 4kW system here generates around 3,600 kWh per year, 10 to 15% more than the UK average.
0% VAT until March 2027
The government has removed VAT on residential solar installations. That is a 20% saving on what you would have paid before April 2022. After March 2027 it moves to 5%.
