Thinking about solar for your business in Ohio? Now’s the time to act. Between federal tax credits and Ohio-specific advantages, going solar can be one of the smartest financial moves your company makes this year.

At BC Solar, we help you make sense of:

Solar Financing and Incentives in Ohio: What You Need to Know

  • Solar Tax Credit (ITC) in Ohio: The federal government currently offers a 30% tax credit on solar energy systems. That includes installation, panels, inverters, and even battery storage if paired with solar. This is one of the biggest ways to lower your total cost.

  • Solar Incentives for Businesses in Columbus: If you're a commercial property owner, you may also qualify for accelerated depreciation through MACRS, helping you recover up to 60% of your system’s value in the first year alone.

  • Solar Loans vs. Leases — Know the Difference: Some financing options help you own your system outright (with all the tax perks), while others may just lower your upfront cost. We’ll explain the trade-offs clearly so you can choose what’s best for your business.

  • Battery Storage = Demand Savings: Adding battery backup not only protects against outages — it can also cut peak demand charges from your utility provider. That means big savings for energy-heavy operations.

Don't worry, we can help!
