Why solar in Scotland?
Yes — solar works in Scotland.
Yes — solar works in Scotland.
Here's what the numbers say.
Panels run on daylight, not heat, so long Scottish summer days do a lot of the work. Add a battery and you can use what you generate in the evening instead of buying it back from the grid.

FAQs
Questions we're asked most
Do solar panels really work in Scotland?
Yes. Panels generate electricity from daylight, not heat, and Scotland's long summer days make up for shorter winter ones. Cooler temperatures actually help panels run efficiently. Generation is lower in winter, which is where a battery and a smart tariff help.
Is a battery worth it?
For most homes, yes. Without a battery you use only part of what you generate — the rest is exported for less than you pay to import. A battery stores that surplus for the evening, and can also charge on cheaper overnight rates.
How much does a system cost?
It depends on your roof, system size and whether you add a battery. Home Energy Scotland puts the average 4kWp solar system in Scotland at around £6,500. Your free survey gets you a fixed, written price.
Do I need planning permission?
Most roof-mounted domestic systems in Scotland don't need planning permission, but listed buildings, conservation areas and some flats can be different. We'll check this for you before any work starts.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are completed in 1–2 days once scaffolding is up. Battery-only installs are usually quicker.
What happens at the free survey?
We check your roof, orientation, shading and electrics, look at your energy use, and answer your questions. There's no obligation and no pressure to sign on the day.
What maintenance is needed?
Very little. Panels are largely self-cleaning in Scottish rain. Your monitoring app shows generation day-to-day, so you'll spot any issue quickly — and we're a phone call away.
