Lichfield is a small cathedral city in Staffordshire, covering the WS13 and WS14 postcodes alongside surrounding villages including Burntwood, Shenstone, Armitage and Alrewas. The city has a varied housing stock — Georgian terraces and Victorian semis in the city centre, newer detached estates in Boley Park and Stychbrook — all with good solar potential. Annual irradiance in the Lichfield area runs at 980–1,020 kWh/m², consistent with the South Staffordshire average.
With electricity at 24–26p/kWh, a south-facing 4kWp system in Lichfield generates approximately 3,300–3,500 kWh per year. A household at home during the day, using 45% of that generation directly, saves £360–£410 annually on electricity and earns approximately £260–£290 per year from the Smart Export Guarantee. Adding a 9.5kWh battery pushes self-consumption to 70–75%, raising total annual savings to £880–£1,060.
We install across WS13 (Lichfield city, Boley Park, Stychbrook, Curborough), WS14 (Shenstone, Wall, Weeford, Little Aston), WS7 (Burntwood, Chase Terrace, Chasetown) and the surrounding villages of Alrewas, Armitage, Handsacre and Kings Bromley. For Burton upon Trent-adjacent properties, our DE14 team covers the overlap.
Lichfield's historic cathedral city centre is a designated conservation area, and a significant number of city-centre properties are listed. If your property is within the conservation area or is a listed building, solar installation may require prior approval from Lichfield District Council. Midland Solar checks planning constraints before every survey — most Boley Park, Stychbrook and suburban Lichfield properties qualify for permitted development with no application required.
Lichfield's DNO is National Grid Electricity Distribution (West Midlands). Battery storage is a strong recommendation for Lichfield homeowners, particularly those with EVs or high evening consumption. The GivEnergy 9.5kWh All in One and Fox ESS T-Series are both popular in WS13 and WS14 — compact enough to fit a standard garage or utility room, and powerful enough to cover a typical household's evening load.
