AIA

(Annual Investment Allowance)

Discover the AIA, a valuable opportunity for businesses to claim 100% capital allowances on qualifying expenditures for plant and machinery.

And guess what? Commercial Solar PV is one of the qualifying technologies.

And the best part? You can claim up to £1,000,000 under the AIA. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to enhance your business and save money. Start benefiting from the AIA today.

First Year Allowance

The 50% Special Rate First Year Allowance is a unique opportunity for your business. This allowance lets you claim against the cost of specific plant and machinery purchased for your business starting from 31st March 2023. And it includes Solar PV.

The Solar PV must be brand new and unused to benefit from this allowance. Just remember, only companies can make use of these allowances. But here’s the exciting part…

With the 50% special rate first-year allowance, you can deduct 50% of the cost from your profits before tax. Now, that’s a deal you don’t want to miss out on.

Financing

Self financing is the most popular option for purchasing commercial solar panels.

This option offers the best financial returns over the lifetime of a renewable energy system and will reduce your payback period considerably.

Many businesses will be eligible to offset up to £1,000,000 of their investment in tax through the annual investment allowance. As part of our consultancy-led service, Collab Solar will help you to investigate your entitlements.

Renewable Energy Finance: Asset Finance

Collab Solar has aligned with a number of long-standing finance partners to deliver businesses with an asset finance offer that makes sense.

In some cases your asset finance payments will be less than your savings on electricity, meaning that your business could be cash positive from day one.

All of the maintenance and insurance of the system is taken care of during the lease period, so it really is a no brainer.

Leasing vs Power Purchase

A power purchase agreement (PPA) has quickly become one of the most popular ways of financing commercial solar panels.

If your energy usage and roof space meet specific criteria, this solution allows you to benefit from a free solar PV installation, financed by a PPA provider.

Electricity generated by the system is then sold back to you at a rate much cheaper than your current energy prices; saving you significant money on your bills and providing your business with all the benefits of solar PV.

Solar panel leasing for businesses

Unlike power purchase agreements, you simply lease the solar panel equipment to generate your own clean energy.

The electricity you generate and use will produce significant savings and your fixed monthly lease payment will be less than the cost of that electricity if purchased from your supplier.

All of the maintenance and insurance of the system is taken care of during the lease period, so it really is a no brainer.
