Frequently Asked Questions
Are solar panels worth it in Stamford?
Yes. With electricity prices significantly higher than 2021 levels and typical returns of 15-20%, solar typically outperforms many traditional investments. Stamford receives similar sunshine hours to the wider East Midlands, generating around 900-1,000 kWh per kWp installed. Systems generally pay back in 4-7 years (business) or 6-8 years (domestic), then provide 20+ years of substantially free electricity.
How long does installation take?
Domestic installations typically complete in 1-2 days; commercial projects take 1-4 weeks depending on size and complexity. The full process from enquiry to working system is typically 4-6 weeks, including surveys, DNO applications, and installation.
Do I need planning permission in Stamford?
Most installations fall under permitted development - no permission needed. You may require approval if your property is listed, located in a conservation area (significant portions of Stamford town centre), or if panels project over 200mm from the roof. We handle all planning applications through South Kesteven District Council where required.
Can I get grants for solar in Stamford?
Yes. Businesses can access regional energy efficiency grants and capital allowances for tax relief. Homeowners benefit from 0% VAT (saving thousands), Smart Export Guarantee payments (5-15p/kWh), and potential ECO4 funding for eligible properties. We help identify and apply for all available funding.
Do solar panels work in cloudy weather?
Yes. Modern panels generate electricity from daylight, not just direct sunshine - producing 10-25% capacity on overcast days. Panels actually perform more efficiently in cooler UK temperatures than in extreme heat.
