Consumer Protection Guidance

Coming Soon

Solar Energy UK are creating a Consumer Protection Guide, set out in a Q&A style, to introduce homeowners and tenants to the potential of installing solar panels on their homes, to make informed decisions when planning to have a solar installation, the benefits of battery storage with solar, and to make sure they know their rights if something goes wrong.

Included within the guide will be sections on how solar panel systems work and their benefits, as well as the costs associated with solar panel installs. It will also cover the potential benefits of installing a battery with solar panels, financing options, and how to pick a reliable installer to ensure the work is carried out to a high standard. Finally, the guide will highlight red flags and things to avoid, what to do if something goes wrong, and how to maintain a solar panel system.

We are committed to a high-quality industry that safely provides energy for people, businesses, and the UK’s energy system. Solar and battery storage is very safe if installed properly and maintained with care, and this guide will help to ensure that people have confidence in their installations.

Solar Consumer Protection Guide Solar Energy UK offers a range of resources for the rooftop sector, including The Value of Solar Heat and The Value of New Build Solar.
