Which? welcomes the opportunity to respond to the government’s consultation on plug insolar: regulatory amendment and interim product specification.

Plug in solar panels have the potential to help consumers reduce their energy bills, and their lower cost and portability make them a good option for households where a larger rooftop system isn't an option. 

However, several organisations have raised important safety concerns about introucing plug in solar in the UK. We therefore recommend that the government take time to ensure these issues are effectively addressed before these products are made available on the UK market.
