Flexible Financing Solutions for Commercial Energy Projects
Every business has different financial objectives. CitiGreen works with property owners, businesses, agricultural operations, schools, municipalities, and nonprofit organizations to identify financing solutions that align with their budget, ownership goals, and long-term investment strategy.
Our team will help you evaluate the advantages of each option and determine which structure best supports your project.
Purchasing a solar system outright provides full ownership of the asset and allows your business to receive the long-term financial benefits of energy savings throughout the life of the system.
This option is often preferred by businesses seeking the greatest long-term return on investment.
Many commercial solar projects are financed through equipment loans offered by banks and commercial lenders.
If you have an existing banking relationship, we encourage you to begin there. CitiGreen can also introduce you to financing partners with experience funding commercial energy projects.
A Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) allows a third party to finance, own, operate, and maintain the solar system while your business purchases the electricity it produces at an agreed-upon rate.
PPAs can reduce upfront capital requirements while providing predictable electricity costs over the term of the agreement.
PACE financing allows qualifying property owners to finance eligible energy improvements through a property tax assessment.
Availability, qualification requirements, and program terms vary by jurisdiction, and our team can help determine whether PACE financing is an appropriate option for your project.
For businesses that cannot fully utilize available tax benefits, specialized financing structures may provide an alternative approach. These arrangements are designed to allocate available tax benefits to investors while allowing the project owner to benefit from lower energy costs and long-term savings.
Our team works with experienced financing partners to determine whether these structures are appropriate for your business.
Federal and state incentives for commercial solar have changed significantly in recent years. Depending on your project’s timing, structure, equipment, and current regulations, tax benefits and other financial incentives may still be available.
Rather than relying on general estimates, CitiGreen evaluates each project individually and works with your tax advisors to identify applicable incentives based on current law.
Because incentive programs continue to evolve, we recommend evaluating projects using today’s regulations instead of waiting for future changes.
Selecting the right financing structure is just as important as designing the right solar system. CitiGreen provides financial analysis alongside project development to help you understand:
Estimated project costs
Cash flow projections
Return on investment
Available financing options
Utility savings
Ownership considerations
Current incentive opportunities
Our goal is to help you make an informed investment decision based on your business objectives, not a one-size-fits-all financing model.
CitiGreen is a leading provider of commercial solar solutions built for long-term savings and reliability.
