How Brough and Elloughton compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Brough and Elloughton. It is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 16th of 122 for solar yield, a town of 12,459 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 978 kWh per kWp a year, 2.68 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £881 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £634 from export at 12p.
Treat these as calibration rather than a quote. The calculator below runs the same model, opened on Brough and Elloughton's own yield, and prices a 12 panel system at £6,360 installed before any battery. Your free design call reworks every number for your actual roof, its shading and your usage.
Any planning application in Brough and Elloughton sits with East Riding of Yorkshire, and its official House of Commons Library settlement class is small 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.

The network operator for Brough and Elloughton
Brough and Elloughton is served by Northern Powergrid: the town's centre falls inside its Yorkshire licence area on NESO's boundary map.
Most home systems stay within 3.68kW per phase of inverter output, which puts them on G98, a notification to Northern Powergrid within 28 days of switch-on. Panel count does not decide it; the inverter and any battery do.
Above that, G99 means applying before the work is booked. Northern Powergrid publishes a guaranteed standard of 45 working days to quote for a low voltage generation connection.

A heat pump in Brough and Elloughton
Heating demand peaks when solar is weakest. In Brough and Elloughton, a 12-panel system makes about 210 kWh in December and 220 kWh in January, a fraction of its 790 kWh in May, which is why a heat pump here is costed on its tariff first.
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).
