Local Planning: East Lothian Council
East Lothian Council has actively supported renewable energy through area-based schemes, contributing to the region's 2nd highest solar adoption rate in Scotland. Standard domestic installations qualify as permitted development across most of the region. North Berwick and Haddington have conservation areas where in-roof solar or sensitive placement may be needed — we check this during every survey.
