Are there schemes to help me get a solar panel installed on my property?

There are no government schemes since the Feed in Tariff ended in March 2019.  You may see advertisements that claim there is but these are often dressed up loans so please tread carefully.  You can be paid for energy that is exported to the grid and from January 2020 all energy suppliers with over 150,000 customers will be obliged to offer such a scheme.  You can shop around for the best rates in the same way that you can shop around for the best imported electric deals.
