Take a look at the following benefits of switching your business solar:

Net Metering: According to SrsSolar, major municipalities across South Africa are now implementing this system, which allows businesses to receive credits for excess solar power your business generates and export it back to the grid, potentially offsetting your business's entire electricity consumption.

Renewable Energy Tax Incentives: As per SAnews.gov.za, the South African government is currently offering a temporary incentive for businesses investing in renewable energy sources. This incentive involves a tax deduction for 125% of the cost of qualifying assets, provided they are new and used for electricity generation from renewable sources like solar, wind, or hydro. This tax benefit is available for two years, from March 2023 to February 2025.

No power outage: By allowing your business to generate its own power it will allow your business energy independence, reducing your Eskom reliance and removing power uncertainties.
