Why Solar Energy is Good For Business
There are many great reasons for businesses to install solar energy. Below are some of the top reasons you may wish to consider for your unique situation.
Long-Term ROI
Most businesses recoup their initial investment in 10 years or less. Meaning you receive a minimum of 15 years of free electricity—100% guaranteed by our industry-leading Warranty.
Corporate Responsibility
Do good by doing good. A healthier planet is everyone’s responsibility. According to multiple studies, workplaces that make conservation a priority have healthier and happier employees!
Take Control of Energy Costs
Say goodbye to unpredictable utility rate hikes that strain your budget. With commercial solar, you lock in long-term savings and bring stability to your overhead—making it easier to forecast and grow.
Social Benefit
A large percentage of U.S. consumers “would prefer” to do business with companies that place a priority on sustainability and energy conservation. Solar is one of the easiest steps you can take—in terms of promoting your efforts.
Battery Storage Creates Peace Of Mind
Adding battery storage to your solar electric system creates a dependable solution for all your energy needs. Use it day or night to self-power your home. Adding battery storage creates peace of mind—bad weather, blackouts, and unexpected outages won’t disrupt your life. With both solar and a solar battery, you can determine how best to power your home—energy from the sun, power from your battery, or tapping into the grid.
Our energy storage systems are specifically designed to provide you and your family peace of mind in the event of a power outage. Its unique power detection system will sense outages in real time and automatically switch over to battery power! Learn more about backup
EV Technology & Incentives
You may not have one yet, but EVs are coming. Let us help you plan your solar installation for this inevitability. We can tell you what to expect with your EV purchase, and we can help you size your system based on your driving habits and the model of your car. A hardwired, high-output Level 2 charger can be installed in your garage or carport as part of your solar system. Start investing now so you are ready for the future.
Tax credits are based on the battery size and go up to $7,500 for customers who purchase an Electric Vehicle, but they won’t last forever. The expiration date is separate for each manufacturer and occurs after an automaker sells 200,000 qualified vehicles. With so many new manufacturers moving toward electric vehicle production, now is the time to make the switch. Check with your local utility company for more incentives before they’re gone. Learn more about EV charging.
Make Your Roof Work Harder
You may think that your roof isn’t suitable for solar. It’s in need of replacement, and it seems like you need to take care of the roof before you go solar.
In reality, replacing the roof at the same time as installing solar is ideal. You can roll the cost of your roof into your solar loan, and you may be able to get federal and state credits on the cost of doing both. Wolf River Electric can help with both!
An added benefit is that having solar on a roof can actually stabilize it and make it last even longer. Don’t wait. Let us help you with both.

One of the most common mistakes people make when using LEDs is not using them properly. LEDs are very efficient and will last a long time, but they need to be used correctly in order to get the most out of them. Make sure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
When choosing LEDs, look for lights that are labeled “dimmable” if you want to be able to adjust the light level. You should also look for lights that have a high color rendering index (CRI) to ensure that colors will look natural under the light. And be sure to choose an LED with a color temperature that’s appropriate for the room you’ll be using it in. For example, cool white LEDs are a good choice for kitchens and bathrooms, while warm white LEDs are better for living rooms and bedrooms.
LEDs are commonly used in task lighting, like under-cabinet kitchen lights, and accent lighting, like recessed and track lights. They’re also an excellent choice for outdoor lighting because they’re very durable and can withstand extreme temperatures.
LEDs can be more expensive than traditional light bulbs, but they last much longer and use less energy, so they will save you money in the long run. LEDs also produce a very bright light, so they may not be suitable for all applications.
LEDs, or light-emitting diodes, are a type of energy-efficient lighting. LEDs are the most energy-efficient type of lighting on the market today. They use about 75% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs and last up to 25 times longer.
