Quick answer

Gosport (PO12/PO13) is in the SSEN area. Its dense peninsula housing and coastal exposure call for marine-grade fixings — which we fit as standard. A 4kW system here generates around 3,900–4,200 kWh a year.

Gosport sits on the peninsula across the harbour from our base — a 15-minute ferry hop or a 15-mile road drive. Its dense terraced and post-war housing is often underserved by quality installers, which makes it strong territory for us.

Coastal exposure matters here: we specify marine-grade fixings as standard on Gosport installs to handle salt-air. Gosport connects through SSEN and we manage the connection for you.
