How Warmsworth compares
Small towns rarely get published solar figures, so here are the numbers for Warmsworth. It is one of 122 Yorkshire towns we track, and it ranks 9th of 122 for solar yield, a town of 11,688 people in the House of Commons Library settlement data. PVGIS gives its roofs 985 kWh per kWp a year, 2.70 peak sun hours a day averaged across the seasons, and the standard 12 panel model turns that into £886 of year one benefit, £247 of it from your own generation and £639 from export at 12p.
Every figure here assumes a clear, south-facing roof at 35 degrees. Yours will differ, which is what the free design call is for; until then, the calculator below tests panels, batteries and export rates on Warmsworth's own yield.
Doncaster is the planning authority covering Warmsworth, 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.

Who runs the grid in Warmsworth
The distribution network operator (DNO) for Warmsworth is Northern Powergrid, which runs the Yorkshire licence area.
For a typical home the paperwork is light: a system of up to 3.68kW per phase goes through G98, which means Northern Powergrid is notified within 28 days of switch-on rather than asked beforehand.
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.

Beyond the panels: heating and car charging in Warmsworth
A heat pump in Warmsworth
A heat pump does most of its work from November to February. Over those four months, 12 panels in Warmsworth make about 1,060 kWh, against 2,990 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 Warmsworth
From April to September, 68% of a Warmsworth roof's yearly output arrives, peaking at about 780 kWh in May on 12 panels. A car parked at home in daylight can soak up what the house, at around 70 kWh of daytime use that month, cannot.
If you rent, or own a flat, and have private off-street parking, the government chargepoint grant covers 75% of the cost, capped at £500 a socket, until 31 March 2027 (gov.uk, checked 28 September 2026). The calculator above prices a 7.4kW smart charger from £1,100 installed.

Common questions about solar in Warmsworth
What does a solar panel system produce in Warmsworth?
Each kWp of panels in Warmsworth makes 985 kWh a year on PVGIS figures, so a typical 12-panel system produces around 6,260 kWh, from about 220 kWh in December up to 780 kWh in May.
What would 12 solar panels cost in Warmsworth?
£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 Warmsworth differs is output: about 6,260 kWh a year from that system.
Would a system in Warmsworth need approval from the network operator?
Warmsworth 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 Warmsworth?
It is exported. With typical use and no battery, about 5,328 kWh of the 6,260 kWh a 12-panel system makes in Warmsworth goes to the grid, around £639 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 Warmsworth in winter?
It works, but the year is lopsided. 68% of a Warmsworth roof's output lands between April and September; the four months from November to February give about 1,060 kWh on a 12-panel system. Payback is worked out on the whole year, not the winter.

PVGIS v5.2 for each town centroid, identical assumptions throughout. A few kWh either way is weather-year noise; a spread beyond about 30 kWh per kWp is real geography.
