Solar for Terraced Houses

Can you put solar panels on a terraced house?
Solar for terraced houses: most UK terraces have the front facing the street (often north) and the rear facing the garden (often south). REAR ROOF: your primary solar opportunity. Typical space: 12-16m² = 6-8 panels (2.4-3.2kW). COST: £4,000-£6,000. SAVES: £350-£650/yr. PAYBACK: 7-12 years. SCAFFOLDING: may extend over the pavement for front access — your installer arranges the pavement licence (£50-£150). SELF-CONSUMPTION: terraced house occupants often have higher self-consumption (smaller homes, more time at home). WITH BATTERY (5kWh, £2,500-£3,500): savings rise to £550-£850/yr.
