The survey looks at the roof's direction, pitch and shade, and at when you use power during the day. Expected generation comes from PVGIS, the European Commission's solar model, which gives Birmingham about 969 kWh a year per kWp on a south-facing roof and 777 kWh facing east or west. Where most of the power would be exported, the quote says so, and shows whether a smaller array or a battery would suit you better. ## The rules the work follows - BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations, for all electrical work - The national permitted development rules for solar, checked against the right council's conservation areas and Article 4 Directions - Grid registration with National Grid Electricity Distribution: a G98 notification within 28 days for normal home systems, or G99 approval before larger systems connect - Manufacturer installation instructions, so warranties stay valid - Wild bird protection law when nests are found under panels ## How pricing works Published price ranges for Birmingham are on this site with the source next to each figure.
