Power Your Profits With Incentives & Rebates

Businesses nationwide consistently switch to solar for a quick return on investment (ROI) and lower energy bills. The annual savings make solar energy a low-risk, high-reward investment that adds to revenue streams and empowers bottom lines.

Multiple federal and state incentives mitigate the upfront solar costs for New Jersey companies. Commercial solar systems typically boast 3-4-year ROIs.

Now is the time to switch to solar energy. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), combined with the 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit (ITC), Accelerated Depreciation, New Jersey State Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs), REAP Grants, and Net Metering, make commercial solar more affordable than ever.

Your monthly electric bill savings begin the moment the system is turned on. Considering all the incentives and credits available, the upfront investment for solar can be shockingly low.

30% Federal Solar Tax Credit

As one of the most impactful financial incentives for reducing the initial cost, the 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit is a no-brainer for businesses. The dollar-for-dollar tax credit lets companies and organizations take a one-time 30% tax deduction from the installation cost, including system parts, labor, and engineering. The recent passage of the Inflation Reduction Act increased the credit from 26% to 30%, further strengthening its benefit.

Depreciation Deduction

Since commercial solar systems are property assets, businesses can leverage depreciation deduction. Their basis is 87% of the total purchase price, meaning a significant portion of your initial investment can be deducted from your commercial taxable income. This financial advantage allows you to decrease your taxable liability, offering a cost-effective way to manage your business finances efficiently in the coming years.

Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS)

Established in 1986, the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) is a depreciation program that allows commercial entities to decrease their solar energy costs over five years. This program allows business owners to recover their investments in specific tangible property for tax purposes over a predetermined period through annual deductions.

State Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs)

Recently transitioning from the fluctuating, market-driven incentives of its successor solar incentive program, the New Jersey State Renewable Energy Credit (SREC) gives credit for a fixed dollar amount for every 1,000 kWh of clean energy a solar system generates. The commercial SuSI amount also increased to $110 per credit for commercial rooftops, ground mounts, or carport systems under 1 MW.

Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) Grants

The USDA’s REAP grants offer vital funding for rural businesses, especially in areas with less than 50,000 residents. These grants enable eligible New Jersey and nationwide entities to adopt renewable energy systems and implement energy efficiency upgrades, such as solar panels.

The application process for REAP grants involves competitive submissions outlining proposed projects and their anticipated energy efficiency and cost savings benefits. Technical assistance is available to aid applicants in project development, ensuring feasibility and maximizing impact. REAP grants help rural businesses adopt renewable energy, enhancing competitiveness and sustainability while cutting emissions.

Tax Exemption

Solar system components aren’t subject to New Jersey state tax. Choosing commercial solar in New Jersey means you can make an exempt capital improvement that decreases your monthly overhead costs and increases your property’s value.

Net Energy Metering

Once your system is up and running, New Jersey allows Net Energy Metering (NEM), a billing arrangement involving tracking excess electricity from solar panels. The value is represented on your monthly utility bill as a credit. If your system produces more energy than your business uses, the surplus returns to the electric grid and offsets any power purchased from the utility company.

The advantages don’t end there. Solar benefits businesses and organizations in ways that traditional electricity can’t.
