Rebates

SOLAR Rebates & Tax Incentives

You can expect to get back 50% – 75% of your money back from tax credits and utility rebates on a solar installation and energy efficiency upgrades.

Government and Utility Renewable Energy Incentives

There are many incentives available to encourage business owners to invest in renewable energy. These incentives come from federal, state, and local governments, as well as utilities. Incentives vary by state and utility program. These programs are designed to reward early investors of solar power. We’ll even file the required utility documents for you. These incentives enable your investment in solar to be profitable. The cost of buying your electricity from a utility supplier will never go down. Produce your own power, lock down your cost, and get returns on your dollar that is second to none. Arizona Solar Pros can help you determine which incentives are available for you. Here’s an informative authority further explaining the information below: www.dsireusa.org

Federal 30% Tax Credit.

The Energy Improvement and Extension Act of 2008 extended the solar tax credit until December 31, 2016. In February 2009, The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 removed the maximum credit amount for all eligible technologies. You now get a 30% Federal Tax Credit with no cap.

Federal 30% Grant

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, H.R.1, included a Federal Grant for commercial solar systems. For 2009 and 2010 projects, solar projects that are eligible for depreciation or amortization (typically those owned by corporate tax filers) can receive a 30% upfront cash grant in lieu of the 30% tax credit. The Treasury Department administers the solar grant program and is required to pay out each solar grant within 60 days of the receipt of each application [not subject to federal tax [Section 1104]. The treasury grant can be assigned. Projects must be completed by 2016, but must be started in 2010.

Utility Rebates

Rebates from utilities pay for as much as 60% of the cost of the system. Add in tax breaks, and that number can be as much as 85%. Rebates come in various forms depending on the utility company. Arizona Solar Pros can help you determine what is available for you, and then apply for the rebates.

Federal Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS)

Under the Modified Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS), 26 USC § 168, businesses can recover investments in solar property through depreciation deductions. The MACRS establishes a set of class lives for various types of property, ranging from three to 50 years, over which the property may be depreciated. The current MACRS lifetime class is five years. The depreciation cost basis is 85% of the cost of the system, or the system cost less ½ of the 30% federal tax credit or grant.

Section 179 Deduction and Bonus Depreciation

The ‘Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act’ of 2010 passed on a bipartisan Senate vote of 68-29 extending the enhanced Section 179 deductions of 2008 / 2009 into 2010. Businesses can now write-off up to $250,000 of qualified property during the 2010 tax year – subject to a phase-out if a business has capital expenditures exceeding $800,000. Please Note – The HIRE Act does not extend the 50% bonus depreciation that was available in the 2009 tax year. (The expired incentive is pending further legislation as the House approved an extension but the Senate has not.)

In conclusion, Arizona Solar Pros will work with your accountant or finance department. We can also help you find a financing solution that will meet your cash flow requirements. In most cases, we can find a solution that is net cash flow positive for the length of the loan or lease. This is an unprecedented opportunity that will pay for your electricity needs for decades.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are solar systems affordable?

YES!!! Solar installations have now become affordable with financing option and Solar Leasing. A solar lease makes it possible to get solar with little or no upfront cost. Solar Electricity makes sense for homeowners and businesses. We suggest that you have analysis done on your specific situation.

2. Buy or Lease now or wait for new technology and lower costs in the future?

An Investment in Solar Electricity is Dependent on 5 Things

Cost of materials and Labor
Utility Incentives
Federal Incentives
State Incentives
The Price of Electricity

Cost of Materials and Labor

The 2009 Recession has caused over supply.

Over supply has caused prices to decrease 30% to 50% since last year for panels and inverters.

Equipment prices have begun to stabilize; and demand for solar has increased in 2010.

If the financial investment makes sense for your business, do not hesitate to purchase now. Incentives and tax credits will likely decrease faster than equipment and installation costs. New technology will take time to develop and ramp production to cross over the price per watt of solar PV technology. In addition solar PV technology is over 50 years old, and reliable with warranties of 25 years.

3. Will incentives go down over time?

Yes, states are unlikely to add incentives. California incentives are 50% lower than they were just three years ago. In Arizona, APS incentive is 30% lower than 6 months ago, SRP has a schedule for reduction each year.

Federal Incentives Will Go Down

30% Federal Tax Credit Ends in 2010
50% Bonus Depreciation ended at the end of 2009

State Incentives Will Go Down

Every solar state is having a budget crisis.
Arizona has already limited their incentive.
The Price of Electricity will continue to go up.
APS will raise rates 35% over the next three years.
California prices have gone up 50% in the last 4 years. Tiered Rates.
Rates will at least follow inflation.

Why Arizona Energy Pros?

Why choose Arizona Energy Pros as your solar company?

We have been in business, in Arizona, since 1981. We are a family run company. Our BBB Rating is A+. That doesn’t happen by accident, it takes dedication. We are proud members of the (ROC) Registrar of Contractors. This means that we are fully licensed, bonded and insured. We have accreditation in the industry as well as from all of our MFG partners.

Every aspect of the transaction, engineering, installation and customer service is provided by our in-house staff. One call does it all. The quality of the installation can affect the performance of the system to a great degree. If not installed by trained professionals the loss of efficiency could be as drastic as 20%. That is a big deal! This could cost you thousands of dollars during the life of the system.

We received and continue to receive the highest level of training in the industry. We are constantly striving for excellence. We are the Arizona Solar Pros and intend to keep it that way!

We provide all of our customers with a Free “Energy Analysis” of their home. How else are you going to make certain you are purchasing the correct system if we do not evaluate your current energy needs? Anyone can claim to be an energy expert. At Arizona Solar Pros we do the job right.

It’s the little things that sometimes matter, as an example; our panels come with special wire clips to hold all of the electrical wiring close to the panel and be aesthetically pleasing. You will never look up on your roof and see an unprofessional installation.

Our installations are performed within 3 months of system purchase. Our competitors average 6 to 8 months. I don’t know about you but when I buy something I want it as soon as possible, and in the case of your new solar system the sooner it gets installed the sooner you’re not paying the power company for your electric! With Arizona Solar Pros we get you out from under the power company’s thumb faster and for less money.

Having so many installations throughout the valley and the country we are very familiar with the rebate process. This alone saves lots of time. We do our installs in 3 months or less because we know the process.
