Installing solar panels in Scotland is more affordable than many people realise, thanks to a number of government-backed grants and funding schemes on offer.
The Home Energy Scotland Loan provides Scottish homeowners access to £15,000 interest-free to cover renewable energy improvements, plus up to £2,500 cashback.
Under the Smart Export Guarantee, energy companies with over 150,000 customers are required to offer a tariff paying you for solar electricity you export back to the grid — providing an ongoing income on top of reduced energy bills.
For eligible households, the ECO4 scheme may also provide support, while a number of Scottish local authorities run their own additional funding programmes.
