Solar panels
Planning Permission
Do you need planning permission to install solar panels?
The installation of solar panels and equipment on residential buildings and land may be 'permitted development' with no need to apply to the local authority for planning permission. There are, however, important limits and conditions, detailed on the following pages, which must be met to benefit from these permitted development rights.
You should discuss with the local authority for your area whether all of the limits and conditions will be met.
