## Two Very Different Markets
Salford and Trafford share a border along the Irwell and Mersey but present two very different solar profiles. Salford's Victorian terraced streets need east-west split array solutions, while Trafford's Altrincham and Hale market opts for premium 6.6kW+ systems with Tesla Powerwall storage.
## Salford: The East-West Solution
For M5, M6, M7 postcodes with Victorian terraces and east-west ridge lines, SMS installs east-west split arrays — panels on both slopes generating up to 85% of south-facing output while avoiding front-elevation planning issues.
## Trafford: The Premium Market
WA14/WA15 (Altrincham, Hale, Bowdon, Timperley) is SMS's second-highest value installation area in Greater Manchester. Average system value: £11,200. EV charging integration is common here — Hale is in the top 10 UK postcodes for EV ownership per household.
