18-Panel Solar Installation in Eastbourne
18 panels · 8.5 kWp · 10.0 kWh battery
About this installation
We installed an 18-panel solar system for a homeowner in Eastbourne. This system features Jinko Solar JKM470N-60HL4 panels, providing a total of 8.46 kWp. An Anker SOLIX X1-H6K-S inverter manages the power, alongside a 10 kWh Anker SOLIX X1-B5-H battery.
Completed in July 2026, this system typically generates 7,004 kWh annually. That is around 56% of the home's annual electricity use. The homeowner sees estimated annual savings of £1,565.
Generation and consumption figures are design-stage estimates: the system’s modelled annual output compared with this household’s annual electricity use at the time of the quote. They are an annual energy comparison, not the share of the home’s demand met directly, and not measured results.
Installer’s notes
What the customer asked for, why the system was designed this way, and what the job involved.
18 panels, 8.46 kWp (the size of the array), with a 10 kWh Anker battery. This is the largest Eastbourne system we have published. Even so, the design covered only part of what the household uses. This home gets through a lot of electricity, so the system brings a big bill down rather than removing it. We say that at quote stage, not afterwards.
