You ask, they answer: Smart Solar

Put your energy questions to Smart Solar, the Oxfordshire-based firm that supplies photovoltaic solar panel systems for domestic use

guardian.co.uk, Tuesday 30 June 2009 15.30 BST

In the You Ask, They Answer spotlight this week is Smart Solar, an Oxfordshire company that produces photovoltaic solar panel systems for domestic use. Managing director, Jonathan Stobart, will be on-hand to answer all your questions about how to install solar generation in your home and garden.
What are the pitfalls in applying for planning permission for solar panels? How do you qualify for the government's £2,500 grant to help you install the technology? What will the "feed-in tariff" planned for next year mean? Is it really sunny enough in the UK to make it worth it anyway?
Jonathan will be answering intermittently until Friday so please add your comments and questions below.
