How we write
Editorial Policy
How we research, check and update the solar information on this site for Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire homeowners.
Quick answer
Every guide on this site is written to help Aberdeen homeowners make informed decisions about solar panels and batteries. We rely on official and manufacturer sources, review pages on a regular schedule, never invent figures and correct mistakes promptly. If you spot an error, contact us and we will check and update the page.
How we check our facts
Every factual claim on this site is checked against its original source before publication and reviewed at least quarterly. VAT rates, export tariffs and scheme eligibility are verified against the relevant government or regulatory body — not secondary sources.
Our sources
We rely on the following primary sources:
- Scottish Government (gov.scot) — policy, legislation, building standards
- Ofgem — Smart Export Guarantee rules, supplier obligations
- MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) — installer certification, MIS 3002 yield methodology
Review schedule
Tariff and finance information is reviewed monthly. Technical specifications and warranty information are reviewed when manufacturer data changes. Legal and regulatory content is reviewed quarterly or when legislation changes, whichever comes first.
What we do not do
- We never invent a fact to fill a gap. If we cannot verify a figure, we remove it.
- We never present estimates as guarantees. Yield projections are always stated as ranges.
- The only finance wording on this website is: Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status. Full terms are set out in your personalised quotation.
