Glasgow Solar Questions

In most cases, solar panels in Glasgow are considered "Permitted Development," meaning you do not need planning permission. However, if you live in a listed building or a conservation area (like the West End or Pollokshields), you may need consent. We handle these checks as part of our initial survey.

Despite the weather reputation, Glasgow receives sufficient daylight to generate significant energy. A typical 4kW system in Glasgow facing south can generate around 3,200-3,500 kWh per year. With our high-efficiency AIKO panels, we can maximize generation even on cloudy days.

We can typically install a standard residential system in Glasgow in 1-2 days. Our local team is based nearby, ensuring prompt arrival and efficient completion of the work.

Yes, Viking Electrical Contractors is a local Scottish business with a registered office in Glasgow (West George Street). We are not a national call centre; we are local experts who understand Scottish roofs and weather conditions.
