Do I need planning permission for solar panels in Cardiff?

In most cases, residential rooftop solar installations are classed as “permitted development” and do not require planning permission, provided they meet specific criteria, such as not projecting more than 200mm from the roof surface. However, listed buildings or properties within conservation areas may require consent, and we recommend consulting with your local planning authority or our experts to confirm requirements for your specific property.
