Dundee is one of Scotland's sunniest cities, benefiting from its east-coast position and relatively low rainfall. The city's compact size and mix of property types make it a strong solar market. We install through MCS-certified partners across all DD postcodes.
Dundee has a mix of Victorian terraces in the city centre, tenement flats in areas like Lochee and Hilltown, and detached and semi-detached homes in suburbs like Broughty Ferry, Monifieth, and the Perth Road area. New developments on the city's western edge offer straightforward installations.
Dundee's terraced properties typically have pitched slate roofs suitable for solar. South-facing roofs are optimal; many Dundee terraces run east-west, meaning north or south-facing roof slopes are common. Flat-roofed extensions can use ballasted mounting systems.
