Financial benefits of Solar PV

Financial Benefits of Commercial Solar PV:

• Just like domestic solar PV panels, a commercial PV installation sees you financially rewarded for the energy you create. That’s thanks to the Government’s new ‘Feed in Tariff’ scheme

• Of course the bigger the installation, the higher the earning potential, so large scale commercial operations that decide to go solar could be pulling in considerable sums of money from their energy company every month.

• The financial benefits of Solar PV don’t just start and end with Feed in Tariffs though. You’ll also save vast amounts on your current electricity bill – and crucially protect your business from ever increasing electricity rates.

• One other bonus too; Installing a sophisticated PV solar panel system to your work facility will add to the value of the property should you later come to sell it

Other Benefits of Solar PV for your Business:

• Solar power plays a huge part in reducing your company’s carbon footprint

• As a business operating in more environmentally aware times, it’s important and indeed rewarding to show your green credentials.

• Many companies even trade on this environmental responsibility, using it as a key selling point to attract business.

• But it’s not just about making money, it’s about doing your bit for the world around you and simply by installing your solar PV panels at work, you could cut your yearly carbon emissions by hundreds or even thousands of tones

Did you know?

• Small and Medium Businesses may apply for loans from ￡3,000 to ￡500,000 with the amount loaned related to the Carbon Trust’s projection of the projects carbon reduction.  The interest free loans are unsecured, have no arrangement fees and are repayable to the Carbon Trust over a four year period

Example:

For a roof size of 180 sqm with 100 panels

Initial cost to install: ￡79,000.00 plus vat @ 5 %

Would give you a total payback of: ￡300,000.00 plus, over a 25 year period*

The initial installation cost would be paid back in 8 years*
