Against Great Britain as a whole: Beverley makes 994 kWh per kWp a year, and the mean of our 85 county PVGIS estimates (our GB average) is 925, so Beverley is 7% above it.
How Beverley compares
Among the places we publish figures for, Beverley is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks 5th of 122 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 32,955 residents, and its roofs see 2.72 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,322 kWh of generation, of which around 5,385 kWh is exported at 12p for £646 a year, with £247 saved on electricity you would otherwise buy at 26.32p.
These are starting numbers, not a quote. The calculator below opens on Beverley's own PVGIS figure; change the panels, the battery or the export rate and it reruns. The design call replaces every assumption with your roof and your bills.
East Riding of Yorkshire is the planning authority covering Beverley, which the House of Commons Library classes as a medium town.
The charger is in the installed price but left out of payback: charging savings depend on your mileage and tariff, which the design call models properly.

Who runs the grid in Beverley
Beverley sits in Northern Powergrid's Yorkshire licence area, so Northern Powergrid is the network operator (DNO) any solar panels or battery here are registered with.
Below 3.68kW per phase of inverter and battery output, the G98 route applies: the installation is notified to Northern Powergrid within 28 days of commissioning, with no prior approval.
A bigger inverter or battery output needs a G99 application in advance. Northern Powergrid publishes a guaranteed standard of 45 working days to quote for a low voltage generation connection.

Adding a heat pump or an EV charger in Beverley
A heat pump in Beverley
A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Beverley make about 1,050 kWh, against 3,010 kWh from May to August, so winter heating runs mostly on grid electricity and the tariff matters more than the roof.
The Boiler Upgrade Scheme, open in England and Wales, takes £7,500 off an air source or ground source heat pump, or £2,500 off an air-to-air unit. Homes on oil or LPG with no mains gas get £1,500 more until March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Beverley
A 12-panel roof in Beverley makes about 800 kWh in May. A typical home uses around 70 kWh of that in daylight (the calculator's typical-use settings), which leaves most of the month's output for an EV or for export.
The calculator above includes a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed. Renters and flat owners with off-street parking can claim 75% of a chargepoint's cost, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).

Beverley solar questions
What does a solar panel system produce in Beverley?
Each kWp of panels in Beverley makes 994 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,320 kWh, from about 220 kWh in December up to 800 kWh in May.
What would 12 solar panels cost in Beverley?
£6,360 for 12 panels (6.36 kWp), the same as in every other place we cover, because solar is priced at £1,000 per kWp installed rather than by area. A battery adds its own installed price on top. Where Beverley differs is output: about 6,320 kWh a year from that system.
Would a system in Beverley need approval from the network operator?
Beverley is on Northern Powergrid's network (Yorkshire licence area). Systems up to 3.68kW per phase of inverter output follow G98: Northern Powergrid is notified within 28 days of commissioning, with no approval needed first. Anything larger needs a G99 application before installation. Northern Powergrid publishes a guaranteed standard of 45 working days to quote for a low voltage generation connection. Our G98 vs G99 guide explains both routes.
How much would export pay on a system in Beverley?
It is exported. With typical use and no battery, about 5,385 kWh of the 6,320 kWh a 12-panel system makes in Beverley goes to the grid, around £646 a year at 12p. A battery keeps more of it for the evening; the export rates table shows what suppliers pay.
Is solar worth it in Beverley in winter?
It works, but the year is lopsided. 68% of a Beverley roof's output lands between April and September; the four months from November to February give about 1,050 kWh on a 12-panel system. Payback is worked out on the whole year, not the winter.
