Another Greater Boston area business has chosen commercial solar panel installation. This company’s unused roof space became a revenue stream that will save over $28,040 in electricity costs every year! The system produces enough clean energy every year to offset the greenhouse gas emissions from 152,948 miles driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle.

Commercial solar tax benefits
Generous federal & state solar incentives make commercial solar a no-brainer. Companies that go solar in 2022 receive a 26% federal tax credit. In addition, accelerated depreciation (MACRS) allows further tax benefits.
Customers prefer green businesses
Going solar makes smart financial business sense, but combating climate change is just as important. In addition, customers are actively looking for environmentally-friendly businesses now more than ever before. According to Forbes, “consumers are looking for more environmental accountability from companies, and some are willing to pay extra for more sustainable products.” By going solar, you help your customers feel good about choosing your services.
Commercial Solar Leasing
For the greatest financial benefit, owning your commercial solar array is best. This customer decided to own the system, which we typically recommend. That said, commercial solar leasing could make sense for some. For example, if you own a large industrial building and want to generate income & help the environment without the up-front costs of owning solar outright, you might consider a commercial solar lease.
As the property owner, you won’t be responsible for payments or maintenance, but you also can’t enjoy the tax benefits of owning the system. You will, however, receive either a discounted rate on electricity or a straight cash payment for the next 20 years.
