That's probably why it's best to stay small. If you've gotten permits for 10kw project in a backyard or on a Walmart roof, you'll probably have a leg up when you start playing at a scale that brings out the nimbys.

This depends; my UK 3.9kWh installation was permit-exempt, requiring only an MCS certified installer so I could be eligible for feed-in tariffs. The permit regime changes as the schemes get larger.
