Lower monthly energy costs
30–50% federal tax credit
100% first-year depreciation
Lifetime monitoring and service
Single point of accountability
The federal Investment Tax Credit for commercial solar (Section 48E) starts at 30% of qualified project cost and can reach 50% with bonus credits for domestic content and energy communities. It covers panels, inverters, racking, battery storage installed with solar, and labor. Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, projects that began construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 to qualify. Systems finished after that date receive no federal credit.
Commercial projects often take several months from contract to interconnection, so the practical window is shorter than it looks. If you're considering solar for your business, the time to start the conversation is now.
HOW MUCH YOU CAN SAVE
Businesses are better suited to solar than homes because most of their electricity use happens during daylight hours, when panels are producing. Every kilowatt-hour you generate on-site is one you don't buy at commercial rates.
30% federal Investment Tax Credit – a dollar-for-dollar reduction in federal tax owed.
+10% domestic content bonus – for systems built with U.S.-made steel and iron and a required share of U.S.-made components.
+10% energy community bonus – for projects on brownfield sites or in areas tied to closed coal mines, retired coal plants, or fossil-fuel jobs.
100% bonus depreciation – deduct the system's depreciable basis in the first year instead of spreading it out.
State and local incentives – vary by state and utility territory; we'll identify what applies to your property.
Combined, the federal credit and first-year depreciation can recover roughly half of the project's cost for businesses with enough tax liability to use them. Most commercial systems we install pay for themselves in 4–6 years.
Disclaimer: This is general information, not tax advice. Bonus credits apply only to projects that meet IRS requirements, and projects 1 MW and larger must also meet prevailing wage and apprenticeship rules. Tax benefits depend on your entity type and tax liability. Consult your CPA or tax advisor.
WHO WE WORK WITH
Cut daytime HVAC and lighting costs during business hours.
Large, flat roofs make ideal sites for high-output arrays.
Nonprofits can receive the credit as a direct IRS payment.
Lower common-area costs and add value for residents.
Offset heavy refrigeration and cooling loads.
No tax liability needed to capture the credit's value.
WHY ICON POWER
Commercial solar projects stall when responsibility is split among a salesperson, a design firm, an installer, and a monitoring company nobody can reach. At Icon Power, one team owns every step: engineering, permitting, utility interconnection, installation, and ongoing service.
We install Tesla, Qcells, REC, SolarEdge, and Enphase equipment, and we design around your actual utility rate schedule, including demand charges, which often make up a large share of a commercial electric bill. Battery storage can reduce those peaks and keep critical loads running during outages.

"I have to say that The Hydra Crew from Icon Power did an absolutely amazing job with our solar installation. They are very friendly and extremely hard workers with attention to detail... they made the magic happen. It's like artwork. They were very clean throughout the process and the product and service they provided is top notch."
"Jordan and his team made the process super easy. They reconfigured some of our existing solar and they added a Tesla battery so we could maximize our utility savings. They handled all the permits... If you are on the fence about solar or a battery — schedule a meeting and they will show you the numbers. You won't regret it."
"Icon showed up within a week with two technicians who were absolutely incredibly awesome!... Icon customer service were top notch and efficient in getting back to me within 24 hours... I am so impressed with Icon Solar that I cannot even express my gratitude... They get 10 stars!"
"This is the 4th solar system I have installed over the years, and Icon Power (Jordan especially) has been Excellent. They were fast, well communicated, instant to respond to any question... I have never experienced such a great install that was very quick, and their lease-to-own option was a great deal reducing the cost."
"Polite, Professional, Proficient. From the initial sales contact, complete with full explanation of time line/benefits/cost options to professional, rapid install to frequent timeline updates and onsite checkups, Icon Power provides you, the customer, with the care and attention that truly makes you a part of the entire project."
"It's unusual these days to work with someone who does great work, for a fair price and in a timely manner, but Icon Power does that and more. We needed them to install an EV charging station and couldn't be happier with the results."
"I have done many solar and other home projects in my life time, this by all means was clear, professional, swift and DONE. Definitely a five stars performance... Awesome work. Strongly recommended."
"Cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Ramone and the Hydra crew. Extremely conscientious, knowledgeable and dedicated. Making sure everything was done safely and accurately... We are much safer now than we were before they showed up. Again highly recommended. You will not go wrong."
"Icon Power was great to work with. Shawn and his crew were fabulous for the install. They ensured we had an install done right, the first time, and didn't have ugly silver conduit running across our roof... they worked with me and around my schedule and had us connected and ready for inspections and the PTO quickly!"
Answers on tax credits, depreciation, cost, and project timelines.
Yes, with a deadline. The Section 48E credit starts at 30% and can reach 50% with bonus credits for domestic content and energy communities. Commercial solar projects that began construction after July 4, 2026 must be placed in service by December 31, 2027 to qualify. Systems placed in service after that date receive no federal credit. The homeowner credit for buying a system is a separate program that ended December 31, 2025.
Yes. Tax-exempt organizations can claim the credit through elective pay (direct pay), in which the IRS pays the credit's value in cash instead of offsetting taxes the organization doesn't owe. Eligibility depends on meeting the same placed-in-service deadline.
Cost depends on system size, roof or ground-mount conditions, and whether battery storage is included. Most Icon Power commercial systems range from $50,000 to $500,000+, or about $2.20 to $2.80 per watt, before tax benefits. We provide a full financial model with every quote.
Most projects take 3 to 6 months from signed contract to placed in service, depending on system size, permitting, and the utility's interconnection timeline.
Yes. Solar and battery storage placed in service on or after January 19, 2025 qualify for 100% bonus depreciation, which allows businesses to deduct the system's depreciable basis in the first year. The depreciable basis is reduced by half of the ITC claimed.
Businesses with meaningful daytime electricity use and available roof, carport, or ground space are usually the best candidates. We install systems for small offices up to large warehouses and multi-family properties.
