Installing solar panels in Scotland is more affordable than many people realise, thanks to a range of government grants and funding schemes currently available.

The Home Energy Scotland Loan offers Scottish homeowners up to £15,000 at 0% interest to fund energy upgrades, and up to £2,500 cashback.

Under the Smart Export Guarantee, all major energy suppliers are required to offer a tariff paying you for solar electricity sent back to the grid — giving you an additional income stream on top of reduced energy bills.

If you’re on certain benefits or have a lower income, the ECO4 scheme might offer additional support, and some Scottish councils offer additional local funding schemes.
