Commercial Solar Electric Power System

As the energy market becomes increasingly volatile, state and federal governments have responded by creating tremendous financial incentives for businesses.

Incentives for commercial solar power systems are at a maximum and currently pay for up to 80% of the total system cost. This is not including the savings you will see on your electric bill.

Cost of 8.00 per PV watt for the “average” roof top grid tied net-metered PV system. The net system cost will be reduced by up to 50%for residential and 80% for commercial because of income tax credits and state incentive money.

For the typical PV array (facing true south at a tilt angle of 18 degrees with no shade falling on the array between the hours of 9:00am to 3:00pm), estimated electric power produced will average 1,617 kWh/yr for 1 kW of PV power from a typical roof top PV system in Arizona.

The average cost, as professionally installed by SolarTyme, of a 3 kW net-metered roof top PV system is $27,500. After your State of Arizona tax credit of $1,000 and your federal tax credit of $7,950 (30% of system cost) your cost is about$18,550 . This system will be about 300 square feet in size.
On a commercial property the State of Arizona gives 10% and Federal gives 30% and accelerated depreciation and amortization – see your CPA for details.
Ground mounted systems typically cost more due to excavation, concrete work, structural work and added wiring and conduit expenses. However, ground mounted systems offer advantages over roof top arrays at some locations.
