Tax Benefits Explained
The Annual Investment Allowance (AIA) allows businesses to deduct up to 100% of the cost of qualifying solar panel installations from their taxable profits in the year of purchase. This means a £50,000 solar system could reduce your corporation tax bill by up to £12,500 (at the 25% rate) in year one.
Combined with reduced energy bills and Smart Export Guarantee payments for excess generation, commercial solar offers one of the strongest returns on investment available to UK businesses. Call us on 0116 497 6782 for a free commercial energy audit.

Commercial Solar, Battery Storage & EV Charging Across Leicestershire & the East Midlands
Energy Concerns designs and installs commercial solar panels across Leicester, Leicestershire and the wider East Midlands — from warehouse and factory rooftops in the Leicester, Loughborough and Coalville industrial estates to office blocks, agricultural buildings, car-park canopies and retail units in Northampton, Coventry, Derby and Nottingham. Every commercial installation starts with a free site assessment, a half-hourly energy-usage analysis and a bespoke financial model so you can see your projected return before committing.
Why East Midlands businesses are switching to commercial solar
With commercial electricity still well above pre-2021 levels, a well-sized commercial rooftop solar system typically offsets 40–70% of a daytime-heavy business’s consumption and pays back in roughly 4–7 years, then delivers effectively free electricity for the remaining 20+ years of panel life. Unused generation is paid for through the Smart Export Guarantee, and pairing panels with commercial battery storage lets you shift cheap or self-generated power into expensive peak periods.
Capital allowances & the financial case
Commercial solar PV qualifies for capital allowances: most businesses can claim the Annual Investment Allowance (100% of the cost, up to £1m) or the 50% first-year allowance on the solar asset, cutting your corporation-tax bill in the year of installation. (Solar PV sits in the special-rate pool, so it is the AIA / 50% FYA route rather than full expensing — we will model the exact position with your accountant.) Combined with rising energy prices and SEG export income, the after-tax payback is often shorter than the headline figure.
