Commercial Solar Solutions for Canadian Businesses: Save Big with No Upfront Costs

At Gala Energy, we understand that commercial businesses need to make strategic investments that pay off quickly and deliver long-term savings. That's why we're excited to offer businesses across Canada the opportunity to go solar with no upfront costs and immediate savings on their energy bills. With generous government incentives and our 100% funded solar program, businesses can transition to clean, renewable energy and start saving without any financial burden.

Unlock Significant Savings with Solar Energy

Solar energy offers immediate and long-term financial benefits. By installing solar panels, businesses can significantly reduce their monthly electricity bills, and the savings can pay for the system over time. Here’s how it works:

  • Immediate Savings: Solar energy provides an immediate reduction in energy costs as soon as the system is operational. Many businesses see a reduction of 30% to 50% in their electricity bills within the first few months.

  • Long-Term Benefits: After the system is paid off, typically within 6-8 years, the energy you generate is essentially free, leading to decades of savings.

  • No Upfront Costs: Our 100% funded program means you can start saving right away without the need for any initial investment. We handle everything—installation, maintenance, and ensuring you take full advantage of available incentives.

The 30% Refundable Tax Credit: Maximize Your Savings

One of the most attractive incentives for businesses installing solar systems in Canada is the Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit (CT ITC). Introduced in 2023, this credit provides businesses with a 30% tax credit on the total cost of installing solar energy systems. This can result in substantial savings, reducing your overall investment by thousands of dollars.

Moreover, the CT ITC is refundable, meaning businesses that do not owe taxes can still receive a refund for the credit, making solar more accessible to businesses of all sizes. This is a game-changing opportunity for commercial property owners, as it effectively lowers the cost of the system right from the start​

Case Study: How Solar Transformed a Local Business

Case Study

The Challenge: A local manufacturing plant in Ontario was facing sky-high electricity costs—around $10,000 per month—eating into their profits and making it harder to plan for future growth.

The Solution: Gala Energy installed a 100 kW solar system designed to match the plant's energy needs. Thanks to the 30% Clean Technology Investment Tax Credit, the business reduced their installation cost by $60,000 right from the start.

How the System Works:

  • The plant now pays a fixed monthly payment for the solar system, which is much lower than their previous electricity bill. They are locked into this predictable, lower cost for the next 4 years.

  • After 4 years, once the system is paid off, the plant will have free electricity for the remaining 20+ years of the system's expected life. This dramatically reduces their long-term energy costs, as the system continues to produce clean, renewable power at no cost to them.

The Results:

  • Immediate Savings: Even while making monthly payments, the business is already saving approximately $3,000 per month compared to their previous electricity bills.

  • Long-Term Savings: After the 4-year payback period, the plant will start enjoying free electricity, saving them up to $36,000 per year in energy costs, which adds up to $720,000 over the next 20 years.

In Summary: The plant now enjoys predictable, lower energy costs and is on the path to long-term savings. With the federal tax credit and no upfront costs, this business will recoup its initial investment in just a few years, after which the savings will contribute directly to profitability.
