What is the typical payback for a solar energy system?
There are a number of factors that drive the length of time for full payback of a commercial solar energy system. System size, financing method, federal and state incentives, the strength and abundance of the sun (called “insolation”) at your location, the cost of grid-supplied energy your facility pays, the rate of utility electricity cost increases, all combine to influence the length of time for full payback of a solar energy system. After JFSI has had a chance to review the basic information about your facility and energy demands, such as your roof type and utility bills, we will generate a report for you that gives you a fairly accurate picture of what the payback period would be if you decided you wanted to raise the capital to pay to install a system on your own. We will also let you know how much time, money, and hassle you will likely save, while reducing your organizational “risk,” by working with JFSI.
