The installation of a Solar system on the roof or wall of a building generally falls within permitted development under planning rules with the following exceptions:
- If the building is listed you will need to apply for planning permission.
- If the building is in a conservation area, you will need to check with your local planning office to see if planning permission is required.
- If the installation is on a flat roof, planning permission will be required.
Ground mounted installations will also require planning permission and may be subject to certain requirements regarding the siting of the ground array.
Regardless of the above, we will check with your local planning department on your behalf before installing a Solar system.
