What the data says about Merseyside
Modelled yield is not flat across Merseyside. Southport comes out at 877 kWh per kWp a year against 830 at St Helens, a spread of 47 kWh per kWp. On a 200 kWp farm array that difference is about 9,400 kWh a year, which is worth checking before accepting a generic saving figure.
Across the districts we cover in Merseyside the planning record lists 1 ground mounted and 18 roof mounted solar schemes. Ground mounted schemes tell you how the network here has treated field arrays; roof mounted ones are undercounted, because an array on a farm building rarely passes the reporting threshold. Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Q1 2026.
Connections across the county run through SP Energy Networks. Anything above 3.68 kW per phase needs a G99 application, and on rural feeders the incoming supply is often the real limit: a single phase supply caps the array whatever the roof would carry.
- Liverpool 848 kWh/kWp
