I note that the FiT register data does have the LLSOA for each entry. So I think that could be used as a means of measuring completeness in a more granular manner than local authority or the first half of the postcode. The OSM data can also be determined per LLSOA. Both the number of installations and the total generating capacity could be used. It'd never be perfect, but would help to identify areas to survey on the ground.

The REPD has a primary key but it only covers larger installations. Most installations, even if we can find metadata for them, we can't find an official ID, AFAIK?

Larger installations are installed in the Renewable Obligations register. Smaller sites are in the Feed In Tariff register. The FiT register can be downloaded (in 3 parts) from: https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications-and-updates/feed-tariff-installation-report-31-march-2019 The RO register can be obtained from the following site. You need to click "view public reports", then "Accredited Stations", Next set the page size to 25 and view the report. Once loaded you can then click the export drop down (the save icon/floppy disk) and export the full register to a CSV. https://www.renewablesandchp.ofgem.gov.uk/ P.S. this is good for almost all sites built up to now. Going forward then other sources will need to be found* as the subsidy schemes have come to an end. * there are none.
