Solar panels for schools across Powys
We survey school and college roofs throughout Powys, model what each one carries against the school's own consumption, and arrange the design, the grid application and the installation through an MCS-certified partner.

Solar for education buildings and what a Powys roof models
Modelled yield is consistent across Powys, from 820 kWh per kWp a year at Newtown to 838 at Hay on Wye. At that spread, where the school stands is not what decides the scheme. The timetable is. Source: EU PVGIS v5.2.
Every town page below carries the same arithmetic for that town, including the share of the year that lands in July and August, which is the number a governing body should see before a saving figure.
Solar PV for academy trusts on the Powys planning record
No school or college solar scheme appears for the Powys towns we cover in the Renewable Energy Planning Database. That reflects the reporting threshold rather than an empty county: the database captures generating stations from one megawatt upward reliably, and a school array is a fraction of that. Source: Renewable Energy Planning Database, Q1 2026.
Connections across the county run through National Grid Electricity Distribution. Anything above 3.68 kW per phase needs a G99 application, and on a school site the incoming supply and the size of the existing main switchboard are often the real constraint rather than the roof.
- Newtown 820 kWh/kWp
- Brecon 828 kWh/kWp
- Builth Wells 830 kWh/kWp
- Hay on Wye 838 kWh/kWp
- Llandrindod Wells 825 kWh/kWp
- Welshpool 831 kWh/kWp
Book a roof survey at a Powys school
Send the school postcode and the rough roof area, with half hourly meter data if the trust holds it. We come back with what the roofs carry, what they generate against the timetable rather than against an annual average, and how schools pay for it.
Lenzie Consulting Ltd arranges the survey and introduces an MCS-certified installation partner. We do not install, and nothing on this page is a guarantee of a saving.
