Newcastle Plug-In Solar

Plug-in solar in Benton and Longbenton

Benton and Longbenton are full of semis and terraces with good-sized back gardens, many facing south or west. Plenty of room, and plenty of sun for a two-panel kit.

Which kit is best for a Benton semi?

If you have a lawn, the Duo 890W ground kit is the usual pick. With a bigger space, the Max 1260W makes the most.
