How Morley compares
Among the places we publish figures for, Morley is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks joint 75th of 122 for solar yield. It is a medium town in the House of Commons Library classification, with 33,620 residents, and its roofs see 2.60 peak sun hours a day across the year. That drives the standard 12 panel model to 6,023 kWh of generation, of which around 5,086 kWh is exported at 12p for £610 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 Morley'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.
Leeds is the planning authority covering Morley, 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 Morley
Morley 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.
G98 is the simple route. If the inverter, plus any battery, stays at or under 3.68kW per phase, Northern Powergrid only has to be told within 28 days after the system is commissioned.
Anything bigger is a G99 case and is applied for first. 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 Morley
A heat pump in Morley
A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Morley make about 990 kWh, against 2,880 kWh from May to August, so winter heating runs mostly on grid electricity and the tariff matters more than the roof.
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 Morley
A 12-panel roof in Morley makes about 750 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).

Morley solar questions
What does a solar panel system produce in Morley?
Each kWp of panels in Morley makes 947 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,020 kWh, from about 200 kWh in December up to 750 kWh in May.
How much are solar panels in Morley?
The price does not move by postcode. At £1,000 per kWp installed, 12 panels (6.36 kWp) come to £6,360 in Morley before a battery. What Morley changes is the return, about 6,020 kWh a year from that system, and your design call prices your actual roof.
Would a system in Morley need approval from the network operator?
Morley 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 can I earn from exporting solar in Morley?
With typical use and no battery, a 12-panel system in Morley exports about 5,086 kWh a year. At 12p per kWh that is roughly £610; a supplier paying more, or a battery that keeps more for the evening, changes the figure. See the export rates table.
Is solar worth it in Morley in winter?
It works, but the year is lopsided. 68% of a Morley 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.
How Morley compares with its neighbours
Same satellite dataset, same assumptions, so the differences are real geography rather than modelling noise.
| Town | kWh per kWp a year | vs Morley |
|---|---|---|
| Morley | 947 | this town |
| East Ardsley | 947 | level |
| Batley | 944 | −3 kWh |
| Gomersal and Birkenshaw | 941 | −6 kWh |
| Heckmondwike | 940 | −7 kWh |
| Dewsbury | 952 | +5 kWh |
| Ossett | 952 | +5 kWh |
Same PVGIS v5.2 query for every town. Small differences are within year-to-year weather; more than about 30 kWh per kWp apart is geography.
