## Why Stirling is different for solar

Stirling sits at 56°N in the Forth Valley, ringed by the Ochils, Gargunnock Hills and the Trossachs. The winter horizon matters here: at 11° solar elevation in December, nearby hills can shade panels. We check your horizon before quoting — national comparison sites do not. SP Energy Networks handles all grid connections in this area at no extra cost. Summer brings 17+ hours of daylight; winter drops to 7 — a battery bridges that gap.
