Installing solar panels in Scotland is more affordable than many people realise, thanks to a range of government-backed grants and funding schemes on offer.
The biggest scheme available is the Home Energy Scotland Loan — an 0% interest government-backed loan of up to £15,000, with cashback of up to £2,500 for eligible installations.
Under the Smart Export Guarantee, energy companies with over 150,000 customers have to provide a tariff paying you for solar electricity sent back to the grid — providing an ongoing income on top of your bill savings.
For qualifying households, the ECO4 scheme is worth investigating, while certain Scottish local authorities run their own local funding programmes.
