Andover and the Test Valley offer excellent conditions for solar installations. The mix of market town properties and rural villages, combined with relatively low shading, makes SP10 and SP11 postcodes ideal for solar generation.

Test Valley Advantages
The Test Valley district offers several solar benefits:
