Commercial Solutions
In today’s business environment companies are
setting environmental goals in their efforts to be good corporate citizens.
Installing a commercial solar power system is an excellent way to fulfill
corporate environmental goals, and at the same time, your company will
benefit by fixing its electrical operating costs. Save significantly on your
electric and/or gas utility expenses and add value to your property.
Current commercial incentives
• Up to 20% California Solar Rebate
• 30% Department of Energy Grant or 30% Federal Tax Credit*
• MACRS 5-Year Accelerated Depreciation
• Year 1 Bonus Depreciation
• Property Tax Exemption

In addition to the benefits of reducing electrical consumption and being an environmentally responsible “green” company, current “Federal Incentives” in addition to “State Incentives” makes PV “Photovoltaic” a particularly shrewd business decision. With tax credits and a five year accelerated depreciation schedule, your CPA certainly has something to work with. The benefits don’t stop there. Having a commercial grade PV system hedges future electric rate hikes and you may also sell your green power “bragging rights” to generate cash income through “green Tag” or Renewable Energy Credit (REC) sales.
Wind
It is a great time to invest in your own locally generated clean electricity. The system’s meter allows for your wind-generated electricity to supplement the existing electric supply from the electric utility. When the wind is blowing, your business will consume the electricity produced by the wind first, thus reducing or eliminating the need for electricity provided by your utility. When there’s no wind, you automatically draw power from the grid. When you produce more electricity than your business consumes at any given time, the excess electricity is fed back into the public utility grid, literally turning your electricity meter backwards!
Water
Heating water with gas, propane or electricity is expensive by any standard. Businesses such as restaurants, hotels, laundromats and others that use extensive amounts of hot water can find significant savings month after month by using solar energy.
In other cases, thermal solar energy can be used to pre-heat water used in boilers to reduce the amount of fuel required in heavy industrial applications. Either way, thermal solar energy used to heat water is by far the most cost-effective, environmentally responsible way to satisfy your operational hot water requirements. Precis Solar has the experience and capabilities to meet your commercial hot water needs from sizing and design to installation and service.
