Local facts that matter
DNO: SSEN (Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks)
Inverness 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
Inverness has large modern housing estates in Ness-side, Slackbuie and Inshes with roof structures that suit solar. The older town centre has traditional stone-built properties, and surrounding Highland villages have detached homes with generous roof space.
Local generation
Inverness is further north, so the sun sits lower in winter, but summer days are long — around 18 hours of daylight near midsummer. A battery lets you store daytime generation for the evening. 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
Inverness city centre and parts of the Crown area are conservation areas. Listed buildings, and panels facing a road in a conservation area, need planning permission. We check planning requirements during the survey.
Costs and finance
Every system is priced after a survey, with a written, no-obligation quote. 0% VAT applies to solar panels and batteries until 31 March 2027. Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status. You can also receive Smart Export Guarantee payments, with rates set by each supplier.
