About
About this guide
North Wales Solar Panel Grants explains the funding that does and doesn't exist for solar panels and heating in the six North Wales council areas. It's named after the search people make, not after a scheme. This page sets out who publishes it and how.
In brief
An independent guide published by SEO-DONS LTD. It isn't the Welsh Government, Nest, a council, a grant scheme or an installer. It can't approve applications, never tells anyone they qualify, and doesn't pass your details to anyone.

Why a North Wales guide
Most writing about solar grants is for England, and much of it describes schemes that don't apply on the Welsh side of the border. North Wales also differs from the rest of Wales: far more homes in the west heat with oil or LPG. A guide built on Welsh sources and local figures answers the question people here are actually asking.
Our rules
What this guide will and won't do
- We say plainly there's no general solar grant in Wales, and name the routes that exist, with their conditions.
- We never tell anyone they qualify; our finder only sorts routes worth checking.
- We never describe a loan, tax relief or export payment as a grant.
- We show grant amounts only with their eligibility conditions.
- We don't name or recommend installers, lenders or products, or quote interest rates.
- We don't use government or scheme branding, or imply any connection to a scheme.
- There's no obligation in asking us a question.
Sources
Where the facts and figures come from
Scheme facts come from primary sources: the Welsh Government's Nest annual report and gov.wales guidance, GOV.UK, Ofgem, HMRC and legislation.gov.uk, with the House of Commons Library for summaries. Local figures come from the Census 2021 via Nomis, the EU's PVGIS solar estimates, and the Nest report's tables by local authority. Each page lists its sources with the date we read them; the full list is on our sources page.
If something is wrong or out of date, tell us.
What to check yourself
The checks we point to
Vouching for firms isn't something we do. When a North Wales reader asks about an installer, we suggest five checks: MCS certification for each technology on the MCS register, membership of a consumer code such as RECC or HIES, a TrustMark listing checked on TrustMark's own site, a workmanship warranty that's insurance-backed, and how the firm is rated on independent review sites, read with care. If something has gone wrong with a firm already, Citizens Advice can explain your rights.
