Commercial Solar Incentives
Business Investment Tax Credit (ITC)
The federal Business Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) allows businesses to receive a 30% Federal Tax Credit for the gross cost of their solar power system. The ITC also applies to battery storage systems.
See the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy’s Residential and Commercial ITC Factsheets for more information, or contact a SunFarm Energy Consultant today!
USDA Rural Energy for America Program (REAP)
REAP provides guaranteed loan financing and grant funding to agricultural producers and rural small businesses that invest in renewable energy and/or energy efficiency improvements. Grants for up to 50% of the project costs are available.
REAP eligibility depends on the location of your business. Contact SunFarm Energy for assistance determining if you business is qualified. Learn more about REAP.
Domestic Content Bonus Tax Credit
The domestic content bonus credit was designed to boost American manufacturing by providing a 10% bonus to the ITC when your project meets domestic content requirements. U.S. made solar panels and/or U.S. made steel satisfy the domestic content requirements.
Modified Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS)
MACRS allows you to recover costs over an accelerated time period of 5 years. You invest in solar and lower your taxes based on the amount you spent on solar over a period of just five years.
With MACRS, you’re reducing the amount you spend on your taxes in a given year.

Financing for Commercial Solar Projects
Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing is funding available to qualified property owners to make energy efficiency, renewable generation, and wind mitigation improvements and repairs. The funding is repaid through an assessment included on the annual property tax bill.
Businesses often face capital budgets constraints that force owners to choose between capital improvements. Using PACE financing enables business to take advantage of fixed rates and longer terms that allow capital costs to be annually and significantly reduced by savings associated with energy efficiency, renewables and wind resistance improvements.
In addition, PACE financing is an off-balance sheet transaction that maintains your company’s cash position while allowing capital projects to be advanced immediately.
