Solar in Leeds

Leeds is one of the strongest solar cities in the north. The mix of stone-built through-terraces in Headingley and Kirkstall, 1930s semis in Roundhay and Horsforth, and newer estates towards Garforth and Wetherby means there's rarely a 'standard' roof — which is exactly why we survey before we quote rather than pushing a fixed package.

Yorkshire's daylight is more than enough for a well-designed array to carry most of a household's daytime demand from spring through autumn, and a battery bridges the gap into the darker Leeds evenings. Pairing that with the Smart Export Guarantee — where your supplier pays you for the surplus you send back to the grid — is where the numbers start working in your favour.

A lot of Leeds stone terraces have steep pitches and shared roofs, and some sit in conservation areas around Headingley and Chapel Allerton. We assess pitch, orientation and shading from neighbouring rooflines properly, and design to keep you inside permitted development wherever we can.

Your local network operator here is Northern Powergrid. We take care of the DNO notification and commissioning paperwork as part of the install, so there's nothing for you to chase.

The Geko difference

Not your typical solar company

Most of the solar industry runs on doorstep reps and subcontractors. We built Geko to be the opposite.

FAQ

Solar in Leeds — common questions.

Do you cover all of Leeds and West Yorkshire?

Yes — across the LS postcodes and out into the wider WF and BD areas, including Horsforth, Pudsey, Otley, Wetherby, Morley, Garforth and up towards Harrogate and Wakefield.

Is solar worth it this far north?

Yes. Panels run on daylight, and Leeds gets plenty of it across the year. A properly sized array covers much of your daytime use from spring to autumn, a battery stores the surplus for the evening, and the Smart Export Guarantee pays you for what you export. The key is a system sized to your actual usage — which is what the survey is for.

Have you installed in Leeds before?

Yes — you can read a real Leeds customer's review on this page. Our engineers install across the city directly rather than subcontracting.

My Leeds home is a stone terrace with a steep roof — is that a problem?

Not usually. Steep and stone roofs are common across Leeds and well within what we install on. We survey pitch, orientation, shading and roof condition first, and design the layout around whatever your roof gives us.

What about conservation areas in places like Headingley?

Many still qualify under permitted development, particularly for rear-facing panels. Where front panels would need planning consent we'll tell you before you commit and design around it.
