The problem with solar

As a key leader of a small business or nonprofit, you believe in the benefits of solar energy. Solar cuts utility costs. Solar provides jobs for the local economy. Solar is good for our planet. Solar makes you stand out. In theory, installing a commercial solar panel system makes sense.

But you’ve also heard it’s more complicated than that. You think solar for business is unreliable or that the process of installing a solar energy system is so difficult it’s not worth your time and effort.

Braggawatt is changing all this.

Our satisfied customers install completely financed solar energy systems for $0 down and see savings day one. Don’t believe us? Here’s a video on how it works:

"People don't care about smaller solar projects like this. They aren't interested or think they aren't worth the time. Braggawatt understood why this project was important to us and were willing to make it work."

Benefits of Solar for Businesses and Nonprofits

Good for your Community

Solar energy systems are fueled by the sun, have no moving parts, create no noise, and produce no emissions or harmful byproducts – only clean electricity.

Unlike our conventional energy generation systems - which are a key source of pollution, chronic health conditions, and global warming – your onsite solar energy system will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality in your local community.

Increases Your Cashflow

Decrease your monthly utility costs by generating solar electricity for less than it costs to buy it from your local utility provider. Even though you won’t eliminate your entire utility bill, you will see savings.

When you generate your own electricity, you are protected from rising energy costs and inflation since the price of solar energy is predetermined for the life of the system.

The most significant incentive is the 30 percent federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which is a dollar-for-dollar reduction in income taxes. Furthermore, many jurisdictions offer additional solar incentives, including cash grants and performance-based Renewable Energy Credits (RECs).

For-profit companies can benefit from another significant income tax deduction that allows them to depreciate the capital investment in their solar system on an accelerated schedule. This helps our customers invest in themselves, rather than their utility.

Most utility companies provide a credit on your bill for the excess energy your system generates that your building doesn’t need (for example, solar generated on weekends). This is called Net Metering.
