West Sussex · GU29
Solar, battery storage and EV charging in Midhurst — designed and installed by a local, MCS-certified team based in Portsmouth.
Quick answer
Midhurst (GU29) is in the UKPN distribution area, and we file the G98/G99 application for you. It sits inside the South Downs National Park, so we design discreet, all-black arrays; a 4kW array here typically generates around 3,850–4,200 kWh a year.
Midhurst is a historic West Sussex market town set deep inside the South Downs National Park, with a statutory conservation area of more than 100 listed properties around North Street, Knockhundred Row and the old market square. The mix of timber-framed and tile-hung historic homes alongside modern fringe estates means installs range from highly sensitive heritage work to straightforward arrays on newer roofs — and visual impact within the park is always part of the design.
A 25-mile drive north of our Portsmouth base, Midhurst connects through UK Power Networks (UKPN) rather than Hampshire's SSEN. We handle the full G98/G99 application and work to South Downs National Park Authority guidance, specifying all-black, low-profile, rear-slope panels so systems sit quietly within the protected landscape.
Grid connection (DNO)
Midhurst is in the UKPN area (the Sussex side of our coverage, distinct from Hampshire's SSEN). G98 covers smaller systems; G99 (applied for in advance) covers batteries and larger arrays — SCSS files the application.
