Scotland is extremely suitable for the
development of solar power technologies, due to its long
hours of daylight.
Solar applications are usually small scale
and can supply power as electricity or heat.
Traditionally applications have been
deployed off grid, backed up by battery storage.
Photovoltaic technologies offer the
opportunity for integration of the technology within
building materials.
The expansion of the UK solar market has
been slower than in other countries such as Germany or
Japan, and depends on the creation of a viable installer
network and reducing capital costs.
