What makes solar different in Chelmsford
Chelmsford includes a wide mix of Victorian homes, post war properties and larger detached houses. Shading and roof layouts vary across Great Baddow, Writtle, Springfield and surrounding areas. We design each system around these local patterns for the best performance.
- Victorian and Edwardian homes often benefit from panel level optimisation due to chimneys and shading.
- Newer estates around Beaulieu and Channels are ideal for battery ready systems thanks to uniform roof layouts.
- Properties near mature trees often see higher winter gains with micro inverters.
- Larger detached homes can take advantage of bigger arrays and more flexible inverter options.
