Solar Solution for Business & Commercial Buildings

Businesses pay more for electricity than the average homeowner, partly due to their time of use being in the middle of the day (peak rates). Thanks to state rebates, federal tax credits, and accelerated depreciation, a solar system may provide an immediate cash flow improvement to your bottom line. Your saving starts the day one your solar system turns on.

To maximize your rebate and system performance, your installer should dispatch a solar consultant to review your electric usage, sunlight exposure, install location and system size. Then your should explain your options, how the tax credits work, and what you need to know to make an informed decision. At the end of the meeting, your install should leave you with a simple, easy to understand set of documents that you can present to your CFO or upper management.

Solar Rebates and Policy

Rebates can reduce your total system cost by up to 50% !
There's money available out there for doing the right thing.  A number of states have program that will rebate/grant up to 50% of your initial renewable energy system cost. Solar power is a long-term, low-risk, high-return investment.  If you are in California, there has never been a more opportunistic time to take advantage of the California rebates (~20%), Federal Tax Credits/Cash Grant (~30%), the 5-year accelerated depreciation schedule and federal stimulus provisions for solar installations. These incentives cut the solar system price tag in half at the very least.


The approved legislation in California affecting current solar projects:

*   AB 811 addressing financial incentives offered to eligible residential and commercial property owners providing them with low interest loans for energy efficient installations that are paid for using tax assessments.


*   AB 32 the global warming solutions act, requiring California to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) to 1990 levels by 2020. The GHG rules and market mechanisms adopted by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) will take effect and be legally enforceable as from 1st January 2012.
