Solar Panels in Halifax, Huddersfield & Brighouse
Spark is based in Brighouse, between Halifax and Huddersfield. We design and fit solar panels and batteries across Calderdale and Kirklees, from Hebden Bridge and Sowerby Bridge to Elland, Mirfield and Holmfirth.
A Solar Installer Based in Brighouse
Our office is on Thornhill Beck Lane in Brighouse, a few miles from both Halifax and Huddersfield, and we install solar and batteries across Great Britain. For homes in Calderdale and Kirklees, that means a solar company just down the road.
Every system comes with an independently validated (EPVS) savings forecast, Aiko all-black panels, an EcoFlow battery sized to your evenings, a bird barrier fitted as standard and a 30-year workmanship guarantee.
Solar on Calderdale and Kirklees Homes
Many homes here are stone-built terraces and semis, often with heavy stone-slate or older tiled roofs. Those can take solar, but they need the right roof hooks and a check on the roof’s condition first, which is part of every survey. In the Calder and Holme valleys, hills and tall neighbouring buildings can shade a roof in winter, when the sun is low, so we check shading across the seasons rather than on the day. Town centres such as Halifax, Hebden Bridge and Holmfirth include conservation areas, where panels can’t go on a wall facing the road and listed buildings need consent. We check this with Calderdale or Kirklees Council where needed.
Figures are regional averages for guidance, based on typical MCS/PVGIS irradiance for West Yorkshire. Your exact generation depends on your roof orientation, pitch and shading, and is confirmed at your free survey.

Solar in Halifax and Huddersfield: Your Questions
Is Spark a local solar installer for Halifax and Huddersfield?
Yes. Spark is based on Thornhill Beck Lane in Brighouse (HD6), a few miles from both towns. We install across Calderdale, Kirklees and the rest of Great Britain.
Can you fit solar panels on a stone-slate roof?
Usually, yes. Stone-slate and older tiled roofs need roof hooks made for them and a check that the roof is sound enough to carry panels for decades. Our surveyor checks this, and we’ll tell you if any roof work is needed first.
Do I need planning permission in a conservation area like Hebden Bridge or Holmfirth?
Usually not for panels on the roof of a house, under permitted development. In a conservation area, panels can’t go on a wall, balcony or roof enclosure facing the road, and listed buildings need consent. The rules in England changed on 27 August 2026; see our planning guide. We check with Calderdale or Kirklees Council where needed.
Do solar panels work well in the Calder and Holme valleys?
Yes, though valley sides and nearby buildings can shade some roofs when the sun is low in winter. We assess shading across the seasons at the survey and design the layout around it. Our winter guide shows what to expect month by month.
How much electricity will solar panels generate around Halifax?
West Yorkshire averages around 905 kWh a year for every kWp installed, so a 6.7 kWp system, the most common Spark size in 2026, makes roughly 6,000 kWh a year. Your quote includes an EPVS-validated forecast for your roof.
How long does installation take?
Most installations are completed in a single day. Across our installs, the median time from signing to install day is 19 days, depending mainly on the size of your inverter: see how long installation takes.
