Lichfield is still behind the rest of England on solar.
There are around 58 solar installations for every 1,000 homes in Lichfield. Across England the figure is 65. Lichfield has more electric cars per home than almost anywhere we cover, and the fewest public chargers for them. Charging at home from your own roof makes more sense here than most places, yet solar is still below the England average.

Will solar work on your Lichfield roof?
The roofs around Lichfield are not all equally good for solar. Here is the honest picture by property type, before anyone climbs a ladder.
Detached homes at Boley Park
Good-sized roofs with clear slopes and room for a larger array and a battery.
New builds at Streethay and Fradley
Modern roofs with simple shapes. Some already have a few builder-fitted panels that we can add to.
Homes in Leomansley, Chadsmead and Curborough
Semis and detached houses with plain roofs and easy access.
Village homes
Shenstone, Whittington, Alrewas and King's Bromley have larger plots and longer roofs.
The Georgian city centre
The streets around the Cathedral are a conservation area with many listed buildings. Panels facing the road can need permission, so we check first.
Flats and shaded roofs
If you do not own the roof, or it is in shade most of the day, we will tell you at the start.
Not sure which of these your home is? We’ll check your roof for free.

Your panels work hardest while you’re out.
The most valuable electricity your panels make is the electricity you don’t have to buy. Tap to see what a battery changes.
Most of your power is made in the middle of the day, when most people are at work. Without somewhere to store it, the spare goes to the grid, often for just a few pence.
Typical figures. Your own split depends on your system size, battery size and when you’re home. We model it for your house at the survey.
Honest figures, and the roofs we turn down.
You won’t find a big savings number on this page. Your saving depends on your bills, your roof and your habits, so we work it out for your house and give you the cautious figure in writing.
- North facing only, with no east, west or south roof to use.
- Heavily shaded by trees, chimneys or taller neighbours for most of the day.
- A roof that needs replacing soon. Re-roof first, then fit panels once.
- Structurally unsuitable, where the roof can’t safely take the load.
- Flats without freeholder consent. It is not your roof to fit on.

How much solar panels generate in Lichfield
A typical 4kW solar panel system on a south-facing roof in Lichfield generates around 3,950 kWh of electricity a year. For comparison, Ofgem puts a typical home’s electricity use at about 2,700 kWh a year.
That does not mean no bills. Most of that power is made in the daytime and in summer, so what you save depends on how much of it you use yourself. That is the part we work out for your house at the survey.
Source: European Commission PVGIS solar model for Lichfield, rounded to the nearest 50 kWh. Assumes a 4kW system facing south at a 35 degree pitch, 14% system losses and no shading. East and west roofs generate less. Your own roof is modelled individually.
0% VAT ends 31 March 2027. Lichfield surveys booking now.
After that, VAT on solar and batteries is expected to rise to 5%. Surveys and installs take a few weeks, so the sooner we see your roof, the safer your 0% is.

Solar panels Lichfield: your questions answered
Usually not. Roof-mounted solar panels on a house are normally permitted development, as long as they sit close to the roof and no higher than the ridge. Listed buildings need consent, and Lichfield's Georgian centre around the Cathedral is a conservation area where panels facing the road can need permission. We check the rules for your street before we quote.
Yes, and Lichfield is one of the best places to do it. The district has high electric car ownership and very little public charging, so most charging happens at home. With solar, a battery and a smart charger, a good share of your driving can run on your own electricity. We fit all three.
There is no general solar grant for homeowners. Solar and batteries carry 0% VAT until 31 March 2027. The government's Warm Homes Loan Scheme offers subsidised loans for solar and batteries fitted by an MCS certified installer. The Warm Homes: Local Grant offers free upgrades to lower-income homes, and for Lichfield it is run as Staffordshire Warmer Homes, which has been open since 24 November 2025 for homes on or off the gas grid.
Yes. A typical 4kW system on a south-facing roof in Lichfield generates around 3,950 kWh a year, according to the European Commission PVGIS solar model. Panels generate from daylight, not just direct sunshine. Output is higher in summer and lower in winter, so we model your system across the whole year using your own roof direction, pitch and shading.
Not always. Panels alone usually let you use 30 to 40 percent of what they make, because most is generated while you are out. A battery typically takes that to 70 to 80 percent. We show you the arithmetic for your house so you can decide.
It depends on the size of your roof, how many panels fit, and whether you add a battery. As a guide, a typical 4kW system starts from £6,500, or from £9,500 with a battery. You get a fixed written price after a free roof survey, with scaffolding included and 0% VAT until 31 March 2027.
