Solar Energy Benefits

Showcase Environmental Leadership

Today more than ever customers care about purchasing from companies who demonstrate a commitment to corporate sustainability. Solar power is a highly visible way to market your business.

Reduce Operating Costs

By purchasing solar power you are able to immediately reduce your electricity bills, improving cashflow. Adding to this, solar can dramatically reduce a building’s Demand Charge costs. Many of our clients value the ability to lock in low energy prices for years to come.

Return on Investment

Many businesses will want to consider solar’s return on investment. This will involve determining the system’s upfront costs versus reduced energy costs over a 25-30 year period, as well as factors like increased marketability, and accelerated depreciation options.

Accelerated Depreciation

Commercial businesses with solar are eligible for accelerated depreciation. Businesses can deduct 50 percent of the system cost per year on a declining basis providing a significant offset to the upfront cost.

Low Maintenance

Commercial systems require very little maintenance. They contain no moving parts and require only that they are kept clear of debris to ensure optimum performance.

Net Metering

BC has net metering, which allows homes with solar power to plug into the grid easily. Net metering means you receive credit for the power you generate, decreasing your electricity bill. If solar is not providing all of the energy, the grid will supply rest.
