Yes. The building stone makes no difference to how panels perform; what matters is the roof. Many granite homes have slate roofs, which need careful fixing and replacement of any cracked slates. Your partner checks roof condition, pitch and shading, and explains the fixing method in your written quote.
Aberdeen’s traditional granite terraces and tenements often have steep slate roofs, while newer estates in places like Westhill and Portlethen have concrete tiles. North-east coastal weather means fixings and cable routes need to suit exposed conditions, which your partner covers at the survey.
Across rural Aberdeenshire, many homes heat with oil or LPG and have larger roofs or outbuildings with room for more panels. SSEN runs the grid in the north-east, and some rural lines have limited capacity, so bigger systems may need G99 approval first.
Spreading the cost can make it easier to add a battery at the same time as your panels. Interest-free credit available, subject to status, through authorised partners. Your Aberdeen or Aberdeenshire quote shows the monthly amount and term in writing, and you can still pay outright if you prefer.
Yes. We arrange solar panel and battery installations across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including Aberdeen, Stonehaven, Inverurie, Westhill, Ellon. We install through MCS-certified partners who cover cities, towns and rural communities, and your partner confirms availability for your postcode when you enquire.
SSEN operates the local electricity network across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Your installer partner sends the G98 or G99 notification to SSEN for you, and tells you if a larger system needs approval before it can be switched on.
Yes, in most cases. A battery can usually be added to an existing solar system using an AC-coupled or hybrid setup. An MCS-certified installer partner checks your inverter, wiring and space, then recommends a battery size that suits your usage, with a written, no-obligation quote.
