About Yorkshire

Yorkshire’s housing stock ranges from Victorian stone terraces in the Pennine towns to large suburban estates around Leeds and Sheffield. EV uptake has been accelerating in the region’s suburban areas, making battery storage increasingly valuable for households looking to charge vehicles cheaply overnight.

According to MCS data, at least 4,243 certified home battery installations have been completed in the Yorkshire region since September 2023 – part of a nationwide surge in domestic battery uptake.

Your savings with an 11.5kWh battery

The battery charges overnight at 9.5p and powers your home during the day, avoiding the 34.49p daytime rate. The saving is the difference between those rates, multiplied by how much energy the battery delivers each cycle.

The calculation (Octopus Go rates for Yorkshire, April 2026)
11.5kWh × 90% round-trip efficiency = 10.35kWh usable per cycle
(34.49p daytime − 9.5p overnight) × 10.35kWh = 259p saved per day
259p × 365 days = £944/year
