I realise the clock is ticking for Government FIT scheme. Can anybody recommend a company to install solar panels near Ipswich please?

Hi Slinky, we live in your area and had solar a panel array installed earlier in the year. It's proved well worthwhile and we're delighted with it. I'm not sure how much investigation you've completed on the subject but it is well worth taking some time to read through some of the posts on here to gain a basic understanding of the matter in order to get what is best for your particular situation. I've added a link below to the thread I posted when in a similar position to yourselves this last February. It tracks our story through the process showing our journey through to signing up and subsequent installation in April. Having received quotations from four companies we eventually engaged Greenscape Energy from Ipswich who completed a first class installation for us. Unless money is no object then it would be advisable to do some preliminary investigation before settling on a final quotation.
If you've any questions arising then I'm sure others will join in to support as they feel able. Good luck.

Thanks very much Coastalwatch. Not sure we're going to have enough lead in time for the installation before the FIT ends, as the property is currently rented out, but it's worth asking some questions.Make £2025 in 2025
