What solar actually does in Tranent
Gregor holds the OVO Solar & Battery partnership for South West Scotland, and Tranent sits inside their EH postcode patch. You deal with a named local expert, the design happens on a free 45 minute video call, and nobody visits your home until you have decided to go ahead. PVGIS puts Tranent at 901 kWh per kWp a year, so a 14 panel (6.3 kWp) system here generates around 5,676 kWh a year.
Yield and peak sun hours are PVGIS estimates for Tranent's own coordinates, not a regional average. Your free design refines them for your actual roof.

Generation figures are PVGIS v5.2 estimates retrieved August 2026 for the coordinates of Tranent, assuming a south-facing roof at a 35 degree pitch with no significant shading, the same assumptions as the regional figures on this site.
