PV helps many businesses improve operational efficiency, thereby lowering monthly utility expenses and banking solar power for future use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn whether solar makes sense for your organization.\u00a0 Is solar power reliable enough to justify a major business investment?\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re considering installing a commercial photovoltaic solar system soon or in the distant future, we understand you have questions. Here is a closer look at the reliability of solar power for businesses (even in the winter) and its ability to be your primary source of energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Does Solar PV Make Sense for My Business?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commercial photovoltaic solar systems are proven, dependable sources of energy for a wide range of commercial applications, such as large office buildings, retailers, governmental agencies, hospitals, airports and many more. Some of the largest organizations in the world power their buildings and data centers through solar PV energy, but commercial solar is not limited to big companies. Installing a solar system can be a smart capital investment for any sized business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From reducing operating costs to going green, the advantages of solar begin immediately. Some of the benefits of commercial solar systems include:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lower utility costs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Banked energy<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Green reputation among consumers<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tax benefits<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Control over future expenses<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mitigate future price volatility<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accelerated depreciation<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is a more in-depth look at a few of the advantages that commercial solar energy can provide, \u201c<\/span><a href=\"articles\/5-benefits-solar-power-for-businesses\/?utm_source=KMB&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=photovoltaic%20solar%20system\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Should Your Business Choose Solar Power?<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Will a Photovoltaic Solar System Work on a Cloudy or Snowy Day?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not sure if solar PV will work for your location? The two biggest factors to consider when it comes to reliability are 1) the amount of available sunlight and 2) the amount of open space to install the system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a study by the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrel.gov\/news\/program\/2017\/failures-pv-panels-degradation.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Energy Department<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the reliability and lifespan of solar panels is excellent. The only time a solar system stops generating electricity is when the sun is not out (night or during an eclipse). Photovoltaic solar systems still generate electricity during cloudy, snowy or rainy days. The amount of energy collected won\u2019t match the level harnessed on a sunny day, but can still produce somewhere between 10-25% of their typical output. In fact, some of America\u2019s cloudiest cities (Seattle and Portland) are leaders in terms of solar PV capacity.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Photovoltaic Solar Energy Solutions for Businesses with Lexodant Solar Technology<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lexodant Solar Technology, one of the leading photovoltaic engineering and design companies in the United States, assists organizations in making informed decisions about installing a photovoltaic solar system and maximizing the power output potential.
