Solar Energy for Your Business Seminar

With rising utility costs and a considerable decrease in the cost of equipment manufacturing, solar energy has become a very cost-effective and sustainable alternative for business owners. Haley Rotter of Rochester Solar Technologies, a Division of O’Connell Electric, will present information about the benefits of using solar technology, the various state and federal incentive programs, tax benefits and will highlight specific case studies of projects in our area. Topics Discussed: Solar can help you reduce your annual utility bill. The average commercial property owner can reduce overall energy costs by 75% with solar technology. Free Source of Electricity. After the average payback period, in as little as 4 years in some cases, business owners can enjoy a free electric supply for 25-30 years which is the life-cycle of the entire solar energy system. Incentives. In NYS, the NY-Sun program offers generous incentives to offset the upfront costs of solar projects. Learn about important program changes and how to take advantage while the economics are at peak levels. Tax Benefits: Only available for another couple of years is the 30% Investment Tax Credit. Accelerated Depreciation options also help businesses recover capital costs over a 5-year period. Green Initiatives. Companies can create an environmentally-responsible image and generate new business and investments from shareholders seeking green businesses to support. Please join us to learn about this beneficial opportunity and find out why solar has grown over 800% in NYS since 2012.
