Solar Lighting Incentives in North Carolina

With the second largest capacity for installation in the U.S, North Carolina is quickly becoming a mecca for commercial solar lighting. From Raleigh to the Applachians, North Carolinians are beginning to see the huge benefits by switching to Solar. By installing Greenshine solar lights you can immediately—and at almost anytime of the year—start saving on your energy costs and join in on this growth.


The “Tar Heel State” is no stranger to using the natural resources of the state to create industry. With over $1 billion in investment in solar in the state, Solar is becoming what was the pine trees of early settlers in terms of creating wealth for the state. Due to this investment, opportunities and incentives for installing solar have been enacted throughout the state. Federal Investment Tax Credits (ITC) can save you 30% on the cost of installing outdoor solar powered lights. Randolph EMC Commercial and Industrial Efficient rebates for those installing outdoor solar lighting. Other tax rebate and loan programs are also available, consult your local power company for more information.


Even with all these incentives to save on outdoor solar lighting, there are even more ways to keep money in your pocket. With commercial solar powered lighting, there is no time or money wasted on trenching and metering unlike traditional outdoor lighting, which can tear up your streets and bank account. For comparison trenching for original power lines may cost you $75,000 while our services run on average of $45,000. That’s a savings of $30,000! Not to mention the additional year-over-year saving costs of installing solar lighting.


Greenshine New Energy makes it easy to install solar powered lighting for your business or municipality. There has never been a better time to switch to outdoor solar power lighting and reap the benefits of North Carolina sun.
