Connecting solar to the Catterick Garrison network
Northern Powergrid owns and runs the local electricity network in Catterick Garrison, as part of its North East England licence area.
What decides the paperwork is the inverter and battery output, not the number of panels. Up to 3.68kW per phase, a system follows G98: Northern Powergrid is notified within 28 days of commissioning and nothing has to be approved first.
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 Catterick Garrison
A heat pump in Catterick Garrison
Solar and a heat pump pull in opposite directions through the year: Catterick Garrison's roofs make 950 kWh from November to February on a 12-panel system, and 2,920 kWh from May to August. The heating season leans on the grid, so off-peak rates do the heavy lifting.
Grant support in England comes from the Boiler Upgrade Scheme: £7,500 for an air source or ground source heat pump, £2,500 for air-to-air, and an extra £1,500 until March 2027 where the home is heated by oil or LPG off the gas grid (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Catterick Garrison
A 12-panel roof in Catterick Garrison makes about 770 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).

Bigger inverter or battery outputs need G99 approval first. Northern Powergrid publishes a guaranteed standard of 45 working days to quote for a low voltage generation connection. "See our DNO explainer.
