About This Location
Solar Battery Storage in Hemsworth
A solar battery turns the power your Hemsworth roof makes by day into evening electricity, the single biggest upgrade for WF9 homeowners on standard import tariffs. AMP Pro Electrical installs GivEnergy, Tesla Powerwall and other leading home battery storage systems across Hemsworth, Kinsley and South Kirkby, sized to your usage and roof output. As a GivEnergy installer we wire batteries to charge from cheap overnight rates like Octopus Go, so you draw stored power at peak times instead of buying at the day rate. Every Hemsworth battery install is BS 7671 compliant, notified to Northern Powergrid under G99 where required, and set up for the Smart Export Guarantee. Retrofit to existing panels or fit both together. Free survey, 0% VAT alongside solar, just 14 miles from our Armthorpe base.

How It Works
Battery Storage for Hemsworth Homes
The Four-Step Process
- 1 Your solar panels generate electricity during the day, often more than your home uses
- 2 Excess energy is stored in your battery rather than exported to the grid at low rates
- 3 In the evening, your home draws from the battery instead of buying expensive grid electricity
- 4 Smart energy management ensures you maximise self-consumption and minimise grid reliance
Financial Benefits
Without a battery, excess solar energy is exported for just 4 to 5p per kWh. With a battery, you store that energy and use it when grid electricity costs 30p or more per kWh — a 6x price difference.
Even homes without solar benefit by charging overnight on cheap off-peak tariffs like Octopus Go or Economy 7, then discharging during expensive peak hours. Typical payback is 5 to 7 years.

FAQ
Solar Questions — Hemsworth
Yes, particularly with current electricity prices. Without a battery, excess solar energy is exported for just 4–5p per kWh. With a battery, you store that energy and use it in the evening when grid electricity costs 30p+ per kWh — a 6x price difference. A battery typically adds 3–5 years to the solar payback period but significantly increases total savings over the system lifetime.
Home battery storage systems typically cost £3,000–£8,000 depending on capacity. A 5kWh battery suits most homes with a 3–4kW solar system. Larger homes or those with EV chargers may benefit from 10kWh+ systems. All battery installations include 0% VAT when installed alongside or retrofitted to solar panels.
Yes. We regularly retrofit battery storage to existing solar installations. The process involves assessing your current system, choosing a compatible battery, and installing it alongside your existing inverter (or replacing the inverter with a hybrid model). Most retrofits take one day.
Most modern lithium-ion solar batteries are warranted for 10–12 years or a set number of charge cycles (typically 6,000–10,000). In practice, batteries often last 15+ years with gradual capacity reduction. After the warranty period, most retain 60–70% of original capacity.
