ARIZONA COMMERCIAL SOLAR PANELS 

 

Commercial Solar panels for large Arizona businesses are a no brainer, as these businesses consume large amounts of electricity for lighting, temperature control, and operations.  With the high amounts of energy these facilities consume electricity usage is a significant contributor to higher operating expenses.  Corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) is also driving solar for Arizona companies.  There is an abundance of natural sun in Arizona, making it the perfect fit for commercial solar projects.

Arizona’s commercial solar panel market is hot and growing rapidly due to the natural sunshine and Federal incentives!

Arizona commercial solar is ideal for logistics facilities, distribution centers, large office buildings, hotels, cold storage facilities, and other owner-occupied properties with ROI in as little as 5-6 years!

Many Arizona companies are harnessing the power of renewable energy by adding solar systems to their warehouses and distribution centers to bring down energy costs.  When the property owner installs a solar system, it allows these facilities to produce their own power on-site for free, while monetizing lucrative tax incentives!

Here are some of the benefits of solar for Arizona companies:

Reduced Energy Costs

Solar power allows logistics facilities to run a large portion of their energy consumption off solar.  When this is done your company secures energy independence by producing its own electricity and minimizing any consumption from the local electric grid.  The return on investment (ROI) of solar for warehouse projects is typically around 5-6 years.  Alternatively, BCSC LLC can procure $0 capex financing for these projects, so those savings are immediate!

Peak Shaving and Protection against Increased Energy Costs

Installing a solar energy system is a fixed cost solution.  When you add solar panels to the roof of your warehouse or logistics center, you can protect your business from increasing electric utility costs. When electricity prices go up, your business will not be affected by the price increases.

Environmental Benefits

Electricity generated by the grid is generated by burning fossil fuels.  By doing this it releases harmful pollutants like carbon dioxide into the air, causing and leading to health concerns and climate warming. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that electricity production creates the second largest share of greenhouse gas emissions, which cause climate change.

Installing solar systems on your warehouse and distribution center roofs demonstrates corporate social responsibility and lowers your carbon footprint, allowing the company to meet ESG goals.

Reliability

Did you know that a solar energy system provide decades of dependable renewable power?  The average life span of your solar system is 25 to 30 years.  In addition to decades of savings, solar systems do not have any moving parts, requiring minimal maintenance.

Arizona Is Ideal for Commercial Solar Panels

Most warehouse and logistic center roofs are perfect landscape for a solar system.  Usually, these roof tops are flat and large with ample room for solar panel installation.  These facilities are usually high of the ground that they get unobstructed sun exposure.  With a large area, you new solar system can offset more energy costs and provide a rapid return investment.

Thanks to the new Inflation Reduction Act and increased (30%) federal investment tax credit (ITC), there has never been a better time to install solar for your warehouse and logistics facilities!  There are likely other available Federal and local incentives as well.  BCSC LLC will advise on all available incentives for your Arizona business.
