Benefits of Going Solar for Businesses
![icons8-decrease-80](https://www.sunvalleysolar.com/hs-fs/hubfs/icons8-decrease-80.png?width=100&height=100&name=icons8-decrease-80.png)
Reduce operating expenses
Businesses pay hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in electricity bills each month. Generating your own electricity allows you to lock in a predictable and significantly lower monthly energy expense. You can then redirect those savings into growth and innovation.
Levelized energy costs
Utility-generated electricity prices are expected to increase by 2 to 5% – or more – each year. In contrast, once you’ve installed solar on your business your energy costs remain much more stable, offering a predictable alternative to grid power. By going solar, you can lock in your energy expenses and protect your business from future price hikes.
Reduce your carbon footprint
Approximately 24% of greenhouse gas emissions are produced by the electricity industry. Switching to renewable solar power is one of the most effective steps your business can take to minimize carbon pollution and contribute to a healthier planet.
Increase energy independence
Power outages can cost American businesses around $150 billion each year, with downtime averaging $9,000 per minute for large organizations and even more for higher-risk industries. By combining solar with battery storage, you can increase grid independence and stay powered during outages.
Tax incentives & rebates
Businesses transitioning to solar power can benefit from various incentive programs, including a 30% Solar Investment Tax Credit. These financial incentives significantly reduce overall commercial solar installation costs and make solar an even smarter business move.
Enhance brand reputation & customer loyalty
Embracing solar energy shows your organization’s commitment to sustainability and can help boost your brand image. With more consumers and employees choosing to support businesses that prioritize environmental responsibility, solar can help you stand out in the market.
Our Commercial Solar Installation Process
All Sun Valley Solar Solutions commercial systems are fully custom-engineered to meet your organization’s unique needs while maximizing energy production and cost savings. Here’s a brief overview of our commercial solar installation process:
![solar consultation 600x400](https://www.sunvalleysolar.com/hubfs/solar%20consultation%20600x400.jpeg)
1. Free consultation
Your commercial solar journey begins with a free consultation. We assess your current energy usage and specific requirements to design the optimal solar power system tailored to your organization’s unique space and energy needs. We also explore your eligibility for federal, state, and local tax incentives to help offset the cost of your solar installation.

2. Site evaluation
Next, we conduct a thorough survey of the proposed installation site to understand the scope of work. This includes reviewing relevant legal documents to ensure you have the right to install a solar energy system, along with conducting site assessments such as shade analysis, structural evaluations, and topographical surveys.
![solar energy system design-600x400](https://www.sunvalleysolar.com/hs-fs/hubfs/solar%20energy%20system%20design-600x400.png?width=600&height=400&name=solar%20energy%20system%20design-600x400.png)
3. System design
We custom design a solar solution that fits your needs, considering site-specific factors like structural engineering, shading, panel orientation, and aesthetics.

Commercial Solar Panel Tax Incentives & Purchasing Options
Commercial Solar Incentives:
Arizona businesses making the switch to solar power can take advantage of a range of federal, state, and local incentive programs, including:
30% Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC)
This federal tax credit allows businesses to offset up to 30% of their solar purchase in the form of a federal tax incentive.
Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS)
Businesses investing in solar can utilize the MACRS method of depreciation, recovering their investment through annual deductions over five years.
Rural Energy for America Program (REAP)
Eligible agricultural producers in certain areas can benefit from REAP, which covers up to 25% of a solar investment, with a cap of $500,000 for qualifying businesses
Commercial Solar Purchasing Options
Most commercial solar purchases fall into one or more of the following categories:
Cash
Paying with cash ensures full ownership of the system and maximizes financial and tax benefits. This option offers the quickest and most lucrative return on investment.
Loans
Solar loans allow businesses to benefit from tax incentives while using savings on electricity bills to repay the loan. We recommend financing only the net cost after applying incentives for the best payback period.
Power Purchase Agreements (PPA)
With a PPA, another entity funds and installs the solar system on your property. You then purchase the generated solar electricity at a predetermined rate. While PPAs don’t allow access to tax incentives or credits, they still lower energy bills. In Arizona, PPAs are generally available to select nonprofit organizations.

Commercial Solar Power Costs and Pricing
Every commercial solar system is different and the costs of installation will vary depending on solar system size, the type of solar system (e.g. rooftop vs ground-mounted vs solar carports), and your organization’s eligibility for financial incentives and tax credits.
At Sun Valley Solar Solutions, we bring decades of experience in both small- and large-scale industrial solar installations, allowing you to reduce upfront expenses while maximizing long-term savings.
