Solar Together Programme

Fareham Borough Council has teamed up with iChoosr to launch the Solar Together programme, which offers high-quality solar photovoltaic (PV) panels and battery storage through a group-buying scheme.
This brings Fareham households together to get the most competitive prices.
Residents can register for free, without obligation, by providing details about their roof, such as its size and orientation. Residents will then be provided with a solution to best suit their roof specifications and associated costs from pre-vetted solar installers.
