Right now is an excellent time for your business to install commercial solar as the government incentive is a write-off up to $150,000. Slash your energy bills and reduce your tax bill!
The government increased the instant tax write off five fold due to the economic impact of COVID-19 and the bushfires. Your business can write off solar instantly. Reduce or wipe out energy bills by making the switch to commercial solar. Before end of June 2021 businesses purchasing an asset of up to $150,000 can immediately write off 100% of the asset. This unprecedented government incentive is an increase of $120,000 on the previous threshold.
Go solar, save on energy costs and write off the purchase cost! We also offer clean energy finance with 0% deposit (low doc loan).
This makes commercial solar a great option for all types of business both large and small. For small solar systems of 5 KWH suitable for small businesses with limited roof space. And for larger systems of 30KW or more for factories, shopping centres, warehouses and large corporate buildings. What makes instant asset write-off a great benefit is that it is front loaded. You also do not need to install the system before the end of 2020
What is the Benefit?
Using this KW solar system, which is a much bigger system than most small to medium businesses even need. Most of our clients install anywhere between a 5kw and 30kw commercial solar system.
Being able to instantly write-off the solar system means the return on the investment could be reached in as little as 3 years and continued savings of up to $10,000 per year (on a 20kw system) and potential 10 years saving of $100,000.
What about the Deadline of this Financial Year?
The lead time for installation and installation can be after the end of 2020 as long as the purchase agreement is completed before end of 2020. Then it can be claimed on your next BAS.
