Elcon Solar's Commercial Solar Installations;
Commercial solar covers a wide variety of business and none for profit organisations. The main advantage to this group is that most of them occupy the properties primarily during sunlight hours when the sun is shining and have very low use after dark therefore the savings and return on investment can be substantial and very worthwhile. As the cost of power never seems to decrease, more and more businesses are deciding to go solar, and why wouldn't you? When you can save approximently 50% - 90% on you energy usage during buissiness hours with a properly designed solar system.
