In the past years, business owners were only concerned with their company's monetary profits. Today, they are profiting sustainably by embracing the Triple Bottom Line, which expands the previous theory by including social and environmental benefits. The Triple Bottom Line includes people, profit, and the planet. This is currently the driving force for the decision-making of the top national brands.

Energy Costs

Energy costs rise every year, but do you gain more value from the energy you buy? No, it is just extra profit to your local utility monopoly. With solar, you can stop that rising cost of running your business. Focus on your core mission. You can claim essential tax benefits that could exceed 44% of the cost of the solar installation. The system will then save your operation more money every year, increasing your profits.

Solar Power

Solar power is popular with the majority of Americans, with 78% purchasing green products and services.  Many Americans are willing to pay more for products if guaranteed ethical and responsible manufacturing processes (46% — per Tork Green Business Survey). These values are increasingly so the younger the generation with which you speak.  Would not your marketing team take advantage of this bragging point to increase sales?  Solar helps you reach more people and show your staff that this community matters to you a lot.

Environmental Impact

Solar is good for the environment, reducing pollution in your community. Buildings do not have a tailpipe like a gas-powered car, but they create pollution at the power plant. Research shows that direct greenhouse gas discharges from homes and companies were responsible for 12.3% of total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.  If you own a building with a sunny roof, you have an opportunity to reduce that and save money at the same time.
