An innovative scheme offering guaranteed and competitively-priced solar panels via a council run reverse auction process. The scheme takes all the complexity and uncertainty out of shopping for solar panels yourself. Participants can be assured of a quality product, a quality installer and guarantees and quality assurance thereafter.
Thousands of people across Norfolk have registered interest in the UK’s first reverse auction for solar panels scheme. To date 3,540 households and businesses across the county registered for Solar Together Norfolk where they were offered average savings of 16 per cent. Norwich City, Broadland, South Norfolk and North Norfolk district councils have worked in partnership with specialist collective purchasing company iChoosr to run the scheme.
