Local facts that matter

DNO: SSEN (Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks)

Aberdeen is in the SSEN distribution area. G98 notification (under 3.68kW) or G99 application (over 3.68kW) goes to SSEN. We handle this for you — see the full installation process.

Housing stock

Granite-built terraces and semi-detached homes dominate Aberdeen, and the solid construction handles panel mounting well. Suburbs like Cults, Milltimber and Kingswells have detached homes with large roofs, and newer estates in Countesswells and Cove have modern roof structures.

Local generation

Aberdeen sits on the east coast, which tends to be drier than the west of Scotland. Roof direction, pitch and shading matter most, so your survey sets out the expected generation for your home. See our Scottish Solar Index for more on Scottish generation.

Conservation areas

Aberdeen has conservation areas including Old Aberdeen, Albyn Place and Rubislaw, where the granite architecture is protected. Listed buildings, and panels facing a road in a conservation area, need planning permission. We check this during the survey.
