data centres combine large, mostly unshaded roofs with steady daytime consumption, so a high share of generation is self-consumed. That keeps payback short — around 4.8 years at Sunderland's tariff of £0.28/kWh.
SolarScout ranks them by roof area and, where Google Solar data exists, by modelled annual output, so you can prioritise the highest-value sites first.
