17-Panel Solar Installation in Polegate

17 panels · 8.0 kWp · 10.0 kWh battery

We completed a new solar and battery installation in Polegate in July 2026. This home now has a 7.99 kWp system, featuring 17 Jinko Solar JKM470N-60HL4 panels. Power is managed by an Anker SOLIX X1-H6K-S inverter, and a 10 kWh Anker SOLIX X1-B5-H battery stores energy for later use. The system typically generates 7,030 kWh each year. It offsets the homeowner's electricity consumption by 281%. This results in estimated annual savings of £1,154.

Installer’s notes

17 panels, 7.99 kWp (the size of the array), with a 10 kWh Anker battery. The design makes close to three times what the household uses. So a good share of the year's power leaves the house on an export tariff. It is the same array size and the same battery as one of our published Hailsham jobs.
