It is important to work with an experienced agricultural solar PV company who has the technical expertise to guarantee that all roof-based installations ordered by 31 December 2011 be installed in time to qualify for the current capital allowances. Of particular importance is experience in dealing with roof strength, network strengthening, asbestos and ammonia rich atmospheres which are particular to agricultural environments.

As well as generating free electricity to feed a farm's own consumption, many roof based solar PV installations produce surplus energy which can be sold into the National Grid. This provides the business with a Feed in Tariff [FiT] payment for every unit of electricity generated, as well as a payment for every unit exported for a period of 25 years, and FiT payments will increase annually in line with the Retail Price Index.
