![]() Does anybody have any info of companies offering free fully funded installation of solar panels through local councils? Just had mail that seems too good to be true.

![]() Yeah we tried for that green grant about 3-4 years ago, The guy came out to make sure we had a south facing roof, had enough room for the minimum 8 solar panels and all seem ed to be going good until the inspector came out and said Nah mate, The age of the roof is too old & pitch of roof isn't right

![]() We’ve just had a couple of quotes around £10 to £11k. Unfortunately have to get planning permission first as property has lost it’s permitted development rights. It looks like a good return on your money and gives you some security of electricity supply.

![]() How would it give security of supply ?
