Solar energy systems are a cost effective and clean option for commercial builders and large businesses who want to make a positive contribution to the environment and to their community. A commercial site with significant hot water requirements can benefit tremendously by adding SunDrum collectors to their current PV system and will enjoy being able to predict their energy costs, instead of watching them spiral. The positive impact that can be made on the environment cannot be overlooked for commercial sites – a typical system would reduce your carbon footprint by over 2 tons of C02 per year.

SunDrum’s collectors will make existing solar systems more powerful and more efficient than they are alone. Many facilities have focused on PV solutions alone, but PV solutions capture only 6-20% of the sun’s energy, the rest is lost as heat.
There are generous state and municipal incentive programs, as well as federal tax incentives that you can take advantage of these days. The Commercial Investment Tax Credit offers a tax credit for 30% of solar equipment costs and the Modified Accelerated Cost-Recovery System (MACRS) allows businesses to recover investment in solar technology through accelerated depreciation schedules.
