Wotton Area Climate Action Network talk

Wotton Area Climate Action Network are pleased to be hosting their latest free public speaker event, bringing news of schemes for domestic and commercial solar panel installation and also touching on planning issues for solar on listed and sensitive area buildings.

Stroud GP Dr. Richard Dean will explain how the Chalford CAN group has negotiated a group discount with a national commercial solar panel installation company offering a 10% discount on rooftop installation, solar panels and batteries.  

Big Solar co-op are a community solar organisation, not-for-profit, carbon-first and volunteer-led organisation, 'solarising' commercial and community buildings all over the UK. If you’ve got a big roof, they can design, build and own solar on your roof – no capital cost for energy and carbon savings.

Planning restrictions are a concern for many owners of historic buildings, and how they may affect installation of solar panels. Don't give up hope, it can and does happen so long as they're not visible.  Wotton CAN are hoping to also have a representative from Stroud District Council to answer your questions on the subject.
