Quick answer

Horsham (RH12/RH13) is in the UKPN distribution area, and we file the G98/G99 application for you. This inland West Sussex town gets reliable yields — a 4kW array here typically generates around 3,850–4,200 kWh a year.

Horsham is a prosperous inland West Sussex market town with a well-preserved historic core around The Causeway and a wide ring of modern and suburban housing at Roffey, Broadbridge Heath and Southwater. The town has seen substantial new-build growth, so we work on both older tile-and-slate roofs in the centre and large unshaded roofs on recent estates — the latter often ideal for bigger arrays paired with battery storage.

A 38-mile drive north-east of our Portsmouth base, Horsham connects through UK Power Networks (UKPN) — the Sussex side of our coverage, distinct from Hampshire's SSEN. We handle the full G98/G99 application, design discreet systems for the conservation area, and size batteries and EV chargers to suit family homes on the newer developments.
