Frequently Asked Questions

Are solar panels worth it in Arnold?

Yes. With electricity up 65% since 2021 and typical returns of 15-20%, solar outperforms most investments. Arnold receives similar sunshine hours to the wider East Midlands, generating around 900-1,000 kWh per kWp installed. Systems pay back in 4-7 years (business) or 6-8 years (domestic), then provide 20+ years of free electricity.

How long does installation take?

Domestic installations complete in 1-2 days; commercial projects take 1-4 weeks depending on size. 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 Arnold?

Most installations fall under permitted development - no permission needed. You may need approval if your property is listed, in a conservation area, or if panels project over 200mm from the roof. We handle all planning applications through Gedling Borough Council where required.

Yes. Businesses can access local authority decarbonisation grants and capital allowances. Homeowners benefit from 0% VAT (saving thousands), Smart Export Guarantee payments (5-15p/kWh), and potential ECO4 funding. We help identify and apply for all available funding.
