Local facts that matter
DNO: SP Energy Networks
Glasgow is in the SP Energy Networks distribution area. G98 notification (under 3.68kW) or G99 application (over 3.68kW) goes to SPEN. We handle this for you — see the full installation process.
Housing stock and tenement consent
Glasgow has Scotland's largest concentration of tenement flats, including traditional sandstone four-in-a-block homes. If the roof is shared, you need co-owner consent under the Tenements (Scotland) Act before panels go up. The south side and east end have large areas of post-war semi-detached and terraced houses with good roof access, and new-build developments in the west end and along the Clyde have modern roof structures well suited to solar.
Local generation
Glasgow's west-coast position brings more cloud cover than the east coast, but solar panels still generate well in daylight, not just direct sun. Roof direction, pitch and shading matter more than the city you live in, so your survey sets out the expected generation for your home. See our Scottish Solar Index for more on Scottish generation.
Conservation areas
Glasgow has extensive conservation areas including Park Circus, Hyndland, Pollokshields and the Merchant City. Listed buildings, and panels facing a road in a conservation area, need planning permission. We check this during the survey.
