When you were a kid, you may have disregarded your parents telling you to turn off the lights when they aren’t in use. Perhaps you didn’t understand just how much money it saved in the long run, but now that you run your own business, every little bit counts–especially when it comes to lowering your monthly power bill. A new method of energy control could drastically improve your business’ bottom line.

 

One of the best ways that your organization can reduce energy costs is by turning to solar power. Admittedly, this technology has a higher initial implementation cost, but compared to previous years, solar power is more affordable than it has ever been before. Depending on the data you’re looking at, the average cost savings for a commercial property with solar energy is about 75 percent–a considerable amount to be sure. Solar energy can also help protect your business from the ever-changing energy costs, as even minor changes can be enough to disrupt equilibrium in your budget. Solar energy keeps you from getting burned by these changes.

 

Surprisingly enough, solar power is also an excellent option for your IT infrastructure. Since your workstations, servers, networking equipment, telephones, and other hardware use up a lot of your technology budget, solar energy can provide a considerable return on investment by supplementing your energy costs. Your whole infrastructure should have an uninterruptible power supply attached, but in a worst-case scenario, a solar panel should be able to provide enough power to make sure that your devices shut down properly. Basically, business continuity is made much easier when you have infrastructure that handles power loss easily.

 

Finally, the social aspect of solar power works in your favor, as any business in your vicinity seeing that you’re being more economically friendly with your energy expenses is sure to take notice. You might even wind up with extra support and endorsements.
