Save On Energy Costs

When you switch to solar, the energy savings that you see will be significant. While a solar panel system may require a large upfront investment, the savings will help you recoup this cost several times over. As solar technology continues to become less expensive, the initial investment amount will also continue to get lower.

Selling Power Back to the Grid

As long as the sun is shining on your company’s solar panels, they will be generating electricity. While you will still be connected to the energy grid, it’s possible that your business will be able to sell excess energy that you’ve generated back to the power company using a net metering program, further lowering your business costs.

Renewable Energy Credits and Green Energy Programs

Even smaller businesses can take advantage of a commercial solar panel system with renewable energy credits and similar programs. While the initial cost of solar has been a barrier to smaller businesses, these incentives provided by a growing interest in renewable energy at the state and federal level, can help your business make the switch and start saving. Federal programs like the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) can reduce the federal income tax liability for a percentage of the cost of a solar panel installation.

Take a Hybrid Approach

A common option for many businesses to lower their energy costs without fully relying on solar is to take a hybrid approach. This approach involves using energy from their solar panels at certain times depending on their needs, and continuing to use traditional electricity at other times. In this way, your business could invest in a smaller solar panel system and still see a decrease in energy spending.
