Renters can access solar, but installing panels usually requires the landlord's written approval and may involve an agreement about ownership, maintenance and what happens when the lease ends. Some landlords may agree to a system if the benefits are clear, while others may not approve structural or electrical work. Alternatives include joining a community energy or shared-solar scheme, choosing a suitable GreenPower option through your retailer, or using approved portable solar equipment where practical. Check any proposed installation with a licensed electrician, and review your lease and retailer terms before committing.
