Buying Solar Panels made easy
Solar Together Kent
Solar panels are a good investment – enabling you to save on your energy bills and be less reliant on energy suppliers.
If you don't use all the energy your panels generate, you can export it to the grid and earn money whilst helping to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and contributing to a more sustainable future.
Dover District Council is working in partnership with Kent County Council on the current round of Solar Together Kent, offering high-quality solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to help reduce carbon emissions/ environmental impacts.
Solar Together Kent is a group-buying scheme, which brings Kent households and small businesses together to get high-quality solar panels at a competitive price.
If you already have solar panels installed you can also register to have battery storage added to your existing solar panels to maximise the benefits of your system, simply select this option on the website when registering as explained below.
The scheme helps you through the process, keeping you informed at every stage.
Planning Permission
Installations will generally not need planning permission. However, in some cases, such as in Conservation Areas and on Listed Buildings, planning permission may be required. For further information please click here.
If the panels are proposed to be fixed to a listed building, or a building or structure within it’s grounds that is considered to be curtilage listed, then listed building consent is likely to be required. This is a separate type of application to planning permission, for details please see Listed Building Consent
