Generating your own energy reduces the need to buy expensive energy from the grid.
Savings over your solar panels’ 25 year guaranteed lifespan can add up to £40,000 in most cases.
Interest-free loans from Home Energy Scotland of up to £17,500 to cover the cost of installation and setup.
Hallhill Developments hopes to build a solar energy farm - capable of generating up to three megawatts of electricity.
The capacity of the proposed site would be enough to power the equivalent of 900 households.
The proposed site is on land between the A1 and the east coast railway line with a nearby National Grid connection.
Ken Ross, chairman of Scots Renewable Energy who is advising Hallhill, said: "Given East Lothian's sunny micro-climate, a solar energy farm would be the best option and would make this one of the first in Scotland."
