Tax credits and incentives make it possible for more businesses to take advantage of the benefits of solar:

As if lower utility bills were not enough, when you switch to solar, customers are able to take advantage of tax benefits that significantly reduce the cost of the system. The 30% federal tax credit for commercial projects is still available — though the timeline is tightening. Plus, commercial solar customers are able to depreciate their solar systems on their federal and state taxes. These tax incentives are significant in the total the cost of the system, so between the solar savings and incentives, customers can get their money back in a fraction of the life of the system. With a 30-year or more useful life, once your solar system has paid for itself, it will keep saving money for decades to come.

Beyond 2026 the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is available with limitations. If construction is begun prior to July 4, 2026, there is a completion window of 4 years for qualify for the 30% ITC. If begun after that date completion by the end of 2027 is required. Commercial projects can be complex with numerous qualifying aspects as well as additional state, municipal, and utility rebates and incentives. You can find out more about specific locations by searching the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Energy.

The Florida Public Utility Commission approved Net Energy Metering Aggregation (NEMA) and Net Energy Metering Virtual (NEMV) in 2009, allowing businesses to install a single centralized solar power system to offset multiple meters or facilities. Benefiting meters can be on different properties or at different rates, but they must be on adjacent parcels. Net metering (the ability to sell energy to the utility) can also be central to creating positive financial returns.

While most companies have heard of net metering, perhaps one of the least talked about but extremely important topics is the role of rate structures. When possible, having the ability to rate switch to the best utility rate structure is extremely helpful in creating a winning financial scenario.

This is a fantastic opportunity to go solar. The right partner, like Mirasol Solar, can help you assemble the most financially advantageous combination of incentives, rate structures, financing, and investors (when applicable) to help your business achieve the maximum benefits and value from your solar project.
