  • RE: Solar installed on rental property

    Hi, Thanks for the reply, although that page says it's archived guidance and appears to relate to energy efficiency improvements before 2015. Is there nothing more recent that's relevant to my enquiry? Thanks Steve
  • Solar installed on rental property

    Hi, I've just had solar installed on my rental property and need some advice on if, and how, I can offset some of the cost on my self assessment return. After finding out from the Energy Saving Trust my tenant qualified for a grant I had the recommended energy saving work completed at my property. This was to replace four night storage heaters with new ones and to have a 2.5kw PV solar system installed. I then paid the company £2,700 for the balance not covered by the grant. I know there used to be some incentives for renewable energy and that the night storage heaters may be eligible to offset as they are replacing exisiting heaters, but would like some guidance on how if and how I can submit these on my self assessment tax return. Many thanks Steve
