Hotel operators know solar means business

Why are so many hotels investing in solar?

California hotel owners know he costs associated with running a comfortable, clean, well-lit hotel are extremely high, and with PG&E rates in constant flux, electricity costs can be hard to budget. Many hotels and hospitality establishments in Northern California are using their roofs and properties to harness the power of the sun with solar energy. Why? The energy savings equal increased earnings and business resiliency.


Don’t miss out on the federal solar tax credit

Time is of the essence when it comes to saving on the cost of solar installation for your property. Our hotel customers are seeing significant savings and shorter payback periods by taking advantage of current incentives including the Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC) of 30% of the total system cost, and accelerated federal and state depreciation; the system installation costs are also exempt from property tax increases. 2022 is the final year that you will be able to deduct the maximum ITC percentage before the deduction is reduced!


How can solar PV or solar thermal systems reduce your hotel’s operating expenses?

  • Take control over the variable expense of electricity and gas utility costs and hedge against future rate increases.
  • Offset a significant part of your total utility bill from your solar electricity production, providing excellent ROI.
  • Eliminate the price volatility of natural gas with a solar hot water system while offsetting up to 60% of your domestic hot water loads


The many benefits of commercial solar energy

Today’s consumers are more environmentally-conscious and are typically drawn to businesses that share their values. Solar energy can make your hotel the establishment of a preference for environmentally conscious guests and frees up expenses so you can devote more resources to guest comforts and customer service. Additionally, solar energy will aid in your compliance with California’s Title 24 benchmarks, provide LEED credits, and help with your GreenPoint® rating.
