Solar panels generating electricity for a Yorkshire home

Solar Panel Systems to Suit Every Property

We design solar panel systems for a wide variety of property types across Yorkshire — from Victorian terraces in Leeds to modern detached homes in Harrogate, and from small office buildings to large manufacturing facilities.

Residential Systems (2kWp–10kWp)

Ideal for most family homes, residential solar panel systems typically comprise 6–24 panels depending on roof space and energy requirements. A typical 4kWp system generates around 3,400 kWh annually — roughly equivalent to 75% of an average household's electricity consumption.

Commercial Systems (10kWp–500kWp+)

For businesses, warehouses, offices and farms, larger commercial solar installations offer significant energy cost reductions and an excellent return on investment. We handle all aspects of commercial solar projects, including planning, DNO applications, metering and monitoring.

Ground-Mounted Systems

Where roof space is limited or unsuitable, ground-mounted solar arrays are an excellent alternative. Popular for farms, rural properties and commercial sites with available land, ground-mounted systems can be optimally angled for maximum energy generation.

Solar Panel Installation — Your Questions Answered

How many solar panels do I need for my home? +
The number of panels depends on your annual electricity consumption, available roof space, and budget. A typical 3-bedroom home in Yorkshire uses around 3,000–4,000 kWh per year, which would be well served by a 4kWp system comprising 10–12 panels. We calculate the optimal system size during your free survey using your actual energy bills.
What direction should my roof face for solar panels? +
South-facing roofs produce the maximum output in the UK, but east and west-facing roofs can still generate 80–85% of the potential output of a south-facing system. Even north-facing sections can sometimes accommodate panels if the pitch is low enough. Our surveyors use specialist software to calculate the exact output for your specific roof orientation and location.
Will solar panels damage my roof? +
When installed correctly by qualified engineers, solar panels will not damage your roof. We use professional mounting systems specifically designed for all roof types — including slate, clay tile, concrete tile and flat roofs — that distribute weight evenly and maintain full weatherproofing. Our 10-year workmanship warranty covers any installation-related issues.
What happens to my solar panels during a power cut? +
Standard grid-tied solar inverters automatically shut down during a power cut for safety reasons — to protect National Grid engineers working on the lines. If you want power during outages, you need a battery storage system with islanding capability. We can advise on battery storage options that provide backup power during blackouts.
How much do solar panels cost in Yorkshire? +
The cost of a residential solar panel system in Yorkshire typically ranges from £5,000 for a 3kWp entry-level system to £12,000+ for a larger 10kWp system with battery storage. Prices vary depending on system size, panel specification, roof complexity and whether battery storage is included. We provide detailed, itemised quotations with no hidden costs.
