Frequently Asked Questions
What industries benefit most from commercial solar in OC?+
Warehouses, cold storage and refrigerated facilities, manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and industrial parks with high daytime loads and demand charges see the fastest payback.
How do commercial solar tax incentives work?+
The 30% federal ITC pairs with MACRS accelerated depreciation and bonus depreciation rules for businesses—dramatically lowering net installed cost versus residential projects alone.
Can solar reduce demand charges?+
Yes. By offsetting peak usage and adding battery peak shaving, solar reduces both energy ($/kWh) and demand ($/kW) components on many SCE commercial tariffs.
Do you install commercial batteries?+
We design commercial rooftop solar for load and the utility on the bill. Solar Topper does not offer Tesla products at this time.
