What are the current tax incentives?

Our expert team will help you navigate the myriad solar incentives available to businesses today including the federal investment tax credit, renewable energy credits, and accelerated depreciation. Right now most central Appalachian businesses qualify for tax credits covering 40-60% of a project’s total cost.

Will solar save us money on Day 1?

If you’re looking for immediate, day 1 bill savings with no upfront cost, then a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) might be a good fit. With a PPA, we can save you 10 – 20% out the gate. For businesses looking to own their system outright, there are lots of variables that play into your day one savings.

What are the current grant opportunities?

We don’t just mine the sun. We’re pros at mining for grants available to businesses, nonprofits, and government organizations. Plus, our experienced team does all the legwork for you!

2 WAYS TO SAVE WITH SOLAR:

OUTRIGHT SYSTEM PURCHASE OR POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Whether you choose to purchase your system outright, or opt for a Power Purchase Agreement, you’re getting the same quality panels and inverters installed by the same highly skilled union workers. The systems and the amount of energy they’ll produce are exactly the same —the difference is only in the financing and ownership model.

FAQ’s:
Outright Purchase

Outright Purchase

Who can purchase a system? Who does it work really well for?

We sell net-metered solar systems to any business, church, school, government organization, or nonprofit that’s interested in making the most of their solar investment. Purchasing works best for organizations that can afford to pay for the system outright or who can secure their own financing. We find that small business owners are the most likely customers to choose purchasing over a Power Purchase Agreement.

What are the key benefits of purchasing?

Purchasing generally delivers the greatest lifetime savings. And there are some incredible tax incentives and grant programs available right now that significantly offset costs – in some cases, nearly the entire cost of the system!

What if I can’t realize the full tax benefit?

Thanks to the IRA, tax benefits are now transferrable! In other words, you can sell any tax benefits that exceed your own tax appetite. What’s even more? Solar Holler will broker the sale of them on your behalf!

Are these incentives available to nonprofits and tax exempt organizations?

YES! YES! YES! Learn more about how the Direct Pay process works here.

FAQ’s:
Power Purchase Agreement

Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)

Can I purchase my system at a later date if I start with a PPA?

Yes. After 6 years, there is an option to purchase the system outright at a fair market value as determined by a third party evaluator.

What is a Power Purchase Agreement?

In a Power Purchase Agreement, we install, own, and maintain a solar array on your property then sell the energy back to you at a per kilowatt hour rate— typically 10-20% lower than the rate you currently pay your utility. So you purchase the power produced, but don’t own the actual equipment.

Who qualifies for a PPA?

We’ll evaluate any business, church, government organization, school, or nonprofit to see if a PPA makes sense for your goals. It all depends on your situation and current utility rates, but PPAs tend to work well for schools, churches, some small businesses, and organizations that just aren’t ready or able to invest in a system of their own.

What are the key benefits of a PPA?

There’s no investment or upfront cost at all because you aren’t actually purchasing the solar system itself. You’re simply allowing us to build the system on your property and agreeing to buy the power it produces. All you have to do is sit back and enjoy an immediate savings of 10 – 20%.

Oak Tree Farm Goes Solar with Solar Holler

We were able to offset nearly 100% of Oak Tree Farm’s energy consumption with a 1,400+ panel array at no upfront cost to their business! Ultimately, the reduction in energy costs will allow for expanded operations at the farm, which means hiring more West Virginians and bringing more food production back to the state.
