How Market Weighton compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Market Weighton. It is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks 27th of 122 for solar yield, a town of 8,113 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 970 kWh per kWp a year, 2.66 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £875 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £628 from export at 12p.
These are starting numbers, not a quote. The calculator below opens on Market Weighton'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 Market Weighton, which the House of Commons Library classes as a 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.

Adding a heat pump or an EV charger in Market Weighton
A heat pump in Market Weighton
A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Market Weighton make about 990 kWh, against 2,980 kWh from May to August, so winter heating runs mostly on grid electricity and the tariff matters more than the roof.
In England, the Boiler Upgrade Scheme pays £7,500 towards an air source or ground source heat pump and £2,500 towards an air-to-air one, with £1,500 more until March 2027 for homes heated by oil or LPG with no mains gas (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026).
Charging an EV in Market Weighton
A 12-panel roof in Market Weighton 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.
Renters and flat owners with private off-street parking can get 75% off a chargepoint and its installation, up to £500 per socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above adds a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Common questions about solar in Market Weighton
What does a solar panel system produce in Market Weighton?
Each kWp of panels in Market Weighton makes 970 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,170 kWh, from about 200 kWh in December up to 800 kWh in May.
What would 12 solar panels cost in Market Weighton?
£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 Market Weighton differs is output: about 6,170 kWh a year from that system.
Would a system in Market Weighton need approval from the network operator?
Market Weighton 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 Market Weighton?
It is exported. With typical use and no battery, about 5,233 kWh of the 6,170 kWh a 12-panel system makes in Market Weighton goes to the grid, around £628 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 Market Weighton in winter?
It works, but the year is lopsided. 69% of a Market Weighton roof's output lands between April and September; the four months from November to February give about 990 kWh on a 12-panel system. Payback is worked out on the whole year, not the winter.
