Fareham borough is family-house territory: 1960s to 1990s estates in Stubbington, Portchester and Park Gate, newer housing at Whiteley, and a Georgian high street and Titchfield village that are conservation areas. Most roofs here are simple and take a 3.5 or 4 kW system with a battery; the newer estates often have an EV on the drive already, which makes a solar-first charger the obvious addition.
Solent Business Park and the estates along the M27 are among the best commercial solar sites on the coast: flat roofs, daytime loads and three-phase supplies, with payback typically around five years and the Workplace Charging Scheme paying £500 a socket towards staff chargers.
